In the twilight, in the evening of the day, in the midst of the night, and the gloom; And lo! a woman, came to meet him, attired as one unchaste, of a wily heart. Boisterous, is she, and rebellious, In her house, abide not her feet; Now outside, now in the broadways, and, near every corner, she lieth in wait: So she caught him, and kissed him, and, embolding her face, she said to him: Peace-offerings, are by me, to-day, have I paid my vows; For this cause, came I forth to meet thee, to seek diligently thy face, and I have found thee: Coverlets, have I spread on my couch of pleasure, dark-hued stuffs, of the yarn of Egypt; I have sprinkled my bed, with myrrh, aloes, and cinnamon: Come! let us take our fill of endearments, until morning, let us delight ourselves with caresses; For the husband is not in his house, he hath gone on a journey afar; A bag of silver, hath he taken in his hand, On the day of the full moon, will he enter his house.

Until an arrow cleaveth his liver, as a bird hasteth into a snare, and knoweth not, that, for his life, it is! Now, therefore, ye sons, hearken unto me, and attend, to the sayings of my mouth; Let not thy heart, turn aside to her ways, Do not go astray, in her paths. For, many, wounded, hath she caused to fail, - yea strong men, slain wholly by her: Ways to hades, are in her house, descending into the chambers of death.
