Proverbs 7:4-11
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 7
4
Say to wisdom, 'You are my sister,'
And call understanding
your
intimate friend,
5
So that they may keep you from an adulteress,
From the foreigner who flatters with her words.
6
For at the window of my house
I looked out through my lattice,
7
And I saw among the naive,
And
discerned among the youths
A young man lacking sense,
8
Passing through the street near her corner;
And he walks along the way to her house,
9
In the twilight, in the evening,
In the middle of the night and the darkness.
10
And behold, a woman
comes
to meet him,
Dressed as a prostitute and cunning of heart.
11
She is boisterous and rebellious,
Her feet do not remain at home;
King James Version
Chapter 7
4
Say unto wisdom, Thou art my sister; and call understanding thy kinswoman:
5
That they may keep thee from the strange woman, from the stranger which flattereth with her words.
6
For at the window of my house I looked through my casement,
7
And beheld among the simple ones, I discerned among the youths, a young man void of understanding,
8
Passing through the street near her corner; and he went the way to her house,
9
In the twilight, in the evening, in the black and dark night:
10
And, behold, there met him a woman with the attire of an harlot, and subtil of heart.
11
She is loud and stubborn; her feet abide not in her house:
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 7
4
Say to wisdom, "You are my sister,"
and call understanding your relative.
5
She will keep you from a forbidden woman,
a wayward woman with her flattering talk.
6
At the window of my house
I looked through my lattice.
7
I saw among the inexperienced,
I noticed among the youths,
a young man lacking sense.
8
Crossing the street near her corner,
he strolled down the road to her house
9
at twilight, in the evening,
in the dark of the night.
10
A woman came to meet him
dressed like a prostitute,
having a hidden agenda.
11
She is loud and defiant;
her feet do not stay at home.
New Living Translation
Chapter 7
4
Love wisdom like a sister;
make insight a beloved member of your family.
5
Let them protect you from an affair with an immoral woman,
from listening to the flattery of a promiscuous woman.
6
While I was at the window of my house,
looking through the curtain,
7
I saw some naive young men,
and one in particular who lacked common sense.
8
He was crossing the street near the house of an immoral woman,
strolling down the path by her house.
9
It was at twilight, in the evening,
as deep darkness fell.
10
The woman approached him,
seductively dressed and sly of heart.
11
She was the brash, rebellious type,
never content to stay at home.
English Standard Version
Chapter 7
4
Say to wisdom, "You are my sister,"
and call insight your intimate friend,
5
to keep you from the forbidden woman,
from the adulteress with her smooth words.
6
For at the window of my house
I have looked out through my lattice,
7
and I have seen among the simple,
I have perceived among the youths,
a young man lacking sense,
8
passing along the street near her corner,
taking the road to her house
9
in the twilight, in the evening,
at the time of night and darkness.
10
And behold, the woman meets him,
dressed as a prostitute, wily of heart.
11
She is loud and wayward;
her feet do not stay at home;
New International Version
Chapter 7
4
Say to wisdom, "You are my sister,"
and to insight, "You are my relative."
5
They will keep you from the adulterous woman,
from the wayward woman with her seductive words.
6
At the window of my house
I looked down through the lattice.
7
I saw among the simple,
I noticed among the young men,
a youth who had no sense.
8
He was going down the street near her corner,
walking along in the direction of her house
9
at twilight, as the day was fading,
as the dark of night set in.
10
Then out came a woman to meet him,
dressed like a prostitute and with crafty intent.
11
(She is unruly and defiant,
her feet never stay at home;
New King James Version
Chapter 7
4
Say to wisdom, “You
are
my sister,”
And call understanding
your
nearest kin,
5
That they may keep you from the immoral woman,
From the seductress
who
flatters with her words.
6
For at the window of my house
I looked through my lattice,
7
And saw among the simple,
I perceived among the youths,
A young man devoid of understanding,
8
Passing along the street near her corner;
And he took the path to her house
9
In the twilight, in the evening,
In the black and dark night.
10
And there a woman met him,
With
the attire of a harlot, and a crafty heart.
11
She
was
loud and rebellious,
Her feet would not stay at home.
