Proverbs 7 AKJV — Proverbs 7

1 My son, keep my words, and lay up my commandments with you. AKJV — Proverbs 7:1

2 Keep my commandments, and live; and my law as the apple of your eye. AKJV — Proverbs 7:2

3 Bind them on your fingers, write them on the table of your heart. AKJV — Proverbs 7:3

4 Say to wisdom, You are my sister; and call understanding your kinswoman: AKJV — Proverbs 7:4

5 That they may keep you from the strange woman, from the stranger which flatters with her words. AKJV — Proverbs 7:5

6 For at the window of my house I looked through my casement, AKJV — Proverbs 7:6

7 And beheld among the simple ones, I discerned among the youths, a young man void of understanding, AKJV — Proverbs 7:7

8 Passing through the street near her corner; and he went the way to her house, AKJV — Proverbs 7:8

9 In the twilight, in the evening, in the black and dark night: AKJV — Proverbs 7:9

10 And, behold, there met him a woman with the attire of an harlot, and subtle of heart. AKJV — Proverbs 7:10

11 (She is loud and stubborn; her feet abide not in her house: AKJV — Proverbs 7:11

12 Now is she without, now in the streets, and lies in wait at every corner.) AKJV — Proverbs 7:12

13 So she caught him, and kissed him, and with an impudent face said to him, AKJV — Proverbs 7:13

14 I have peace offerings with me; this day have I paid my vows. AKJV — Proverbs 7:14

15 Therefore came I forth to meet you, diligently to seek your face, and I have found you. AKJV — Proverbs 7:15

16 I have decked my bed with coverings of tapestry, with carved works, with fine linen of Egypt. AKJV — Proverbs 7:16

17 I have perfumed my bed with myrrh, aloes, and cinnamon. AKJV — Proverbs 7:17

18 Come, let us take our fill of love until the morning: let us solace ourselves with loves. AKJV — Proverbs 7:18

19 For the manager is not at home, he is gone a long journey: AKJV — Proverbs 7:19

20 He has taken a bag of money with him, and will come home at the day appointed. AKJV — Proverbs 7:20

21 With her much fair speech she caused him to yield, with the flattering of her lips she forced him. AKJV — Proverbs 7:21

22 He goes after her straightway, as an ox goes to the slaughter, or as a fool to the correction of the stocks; AKJV — Proverbs 7:22

23 Till a dart strike through his liver; as a bird hastens to the snare, and knows not that it is for his life. AKJV — Proverbs 7:23

24 Listen to me now therefore, O you children, and attend to the words of my mouth. AKJV — Proverbs 7:24

25 Let not your heart decline to her ways, go not astray in her paths. AKJV — Proverbs 7:25

26 For she has cast down many wounded: yes, many strong men have been slain by her. AKJV — Proverbs 7:26

27 Her house is the way to hell, going down to the chambers of death. AKJV — Proverbs 7:27
