In the twilight, in the evening, in the black and dark night: And, behold, there met him a woman with the attire of a harlot, and subtle of heart.

So she caught him, and kissed him, and with an impudent face said unto him, I have peace offerings with me; this day have I paid my vows.

Hearken unto me now therefore, O you children, and attend to the words of my mouth. Let not your heart turn aside to her ways, go not astray in her paths. For she has cast down many wounded: yea, many strong men have been slain by her. Her house is the way to sheol, going down to the chambers of death.

But as a wife that commits adultery, who takes strangers instead of her husband!
