Chapter 7 My son, keep My words,
and lay up My commandments with thee.

00:06.580 --> 00:10.460
Keep My commandments, and live,
and My law as the apple of thine eye.

00:11.180 --> 00:14.700
Bind them upon thy fingers, write them
upon the table of thine heart.

00:15.360 --> 00:20.440
Say unto wisdom, Thou art My sister,
and call understanding thy kinswoman,

00:21.140 --> 00:25.500
that they may keep thee from the strange
woman, from the stranger which flattereth

00:25.500 --> 00:26.340
with her words.

00:26.340 --> 00:31.440
For at the window of My house I looked
through My casement, and beheld among the

00:31.440 --> 00:36.240
simple ones, I discerned among the youths,
a young man void of understanding,

00:36.800 --> 00:40.360
passing through the street near her
corner, and he went the way to her house,

00:40.700 --> 00:43.980
in the twilight, in the evening,
in the black and dark night.

00:44.700 --> 00:49.940
And behold, there met him a woman with the
attire of an harlot, and subtle of heart.

00:50.740 --> 00:54.240
She is loud and stubborn, her feet abide
not in her house.

00:54.960 --> 00:59.860
Now is she without, now in the streets,
and lieth in wait at every corner.

01:00.740 --> 01:05.240
So she caught him, and kissed him,
and with an impudent face said unto him,

01:05.600 --> 01:10.460
I have peace offerings with me,
this day have I paid my vows, therefore

01:10.460 --> 01:15.300
came I forth to meet thee, diligently to
seek thy face, and I have found thee.

01:15.840 --> 01:20.760
I have decked my bed with coverings of
tapestry, with carved works, with fine

01:20.760 --> 01:21.480
linen of Egypt.

01:21.480 --> 01:25.180
I have perfumed my bed with myrrh,
aloes, and cinnamon.

01:25.900 --> 01:30.940
Come, let us take our fill of love until
the morning, let us solace ourselves with

01:30.940 --> 01:31.400
loves.

01:32.080 --> 01:35.380
For the good man is not at home,
he is gone a long journey.

01:36.180 --> 01:39.660
He hath taken a bag of money with him,
and will come home at the day appointed.

01:40.780 --> 01:43.880
With her much fair speech, she caused him
to yield.

01:44.560 --> 01:46.620
With the flattering of her lips,
she forced him.

01:47.280 --> 01:50.580
He goeth after her straightway,
as an ox goeth to the slaughter,

01:50.580 --> 01:54.680
or as a fool to the correction of the
stocks, till a dart strike through his

01:54.680 --> 01:59.920
liver, as a bird hasteth to the snare,
and knoweth not that it is for his life.

02:01.380 --> 02:04.840
Hearken unto me now, therefore,
O ye children, and attend to the words of

02:04.840 --> 02:05.340
my mouth.

02:05.920 --> 02:11.840
Let not thine heart decline to her ways,
go not astray in her paths, for she hath

02:11.840 --> 02:16.500
cast down many wounded, yea, many strong
men have been slain by her.

02:16.500 --> 02:21.460
Her house is the way to hell, going down
to the chambers of death.
