1My son, heed my advice,
2Obey my commands,
3Tie my commands around your fingers in order that they will remind you to obey them.
4Love wisdom like you love your sister.
5If you are wise and if you understand what is wise [PRS], you will not sleep with an immoral woman;
6One day, I was standing at the window inside my house,
7I saw some young men who did not have good sense.
8He crossed the street near the house of an immoral woman.
9at twilight, when it was getting dark [DOU].
10Suddenly the woman came out to see/meet him.
11She was a loud talker, one who was rebellious;
12She often went into the city streets and plazas/markets,
13When she saw that young man, she put her arms around him and kissed him.
14“I have some meat that is left over from a sacrifice that I made today to maintain fellowship with Yahweh;
15And now I have come out to meet/see you.
16I have put on my bed sheets/bedspreads that were made from very fine linen that were imported {people brought} from Egypt.
17I have sprinkled sweet-smelling perfumes on my bed—
18Come with me; let us enjoy having sex until tomorrow morning.
19My husband is not at home;
20He is carrying a wallet filled with money,
21So she persuaded him by her enticing/tempting words.
22And he went with her immediately,
23where it will remain/stay until someone shoots an arrow into its liver and kills it.
24My son, listen to what I say;
25Do not allow anything to arouse/persuade you to go with an immoral woman like that.
26She has caused many men to be ruined;
27The road to her house is the road to the grave.
