Proverbs 7:14

Verse 14 of 27. The 7th of 31 chapters in Proverbs, in Poetry and Wisdom.

10Behold, there a woman met him with the attire of a prostitute, and with crafty intent.

11She is loud and defiant. Her feet don’t stay in her house.

12Now she is in the streets, now in the squares, and lurking at every corner.

13So she caught him, and kissed him. With an impudent face she said to him:

14“Sacrifices of peace offerings are with me. Today I have paid my vows.

15Therefore I came out to meet you, to diligently seek your face, and I have found you.

16I have spread my couch with carpets of tapestry, with striped cloths of the yarn of Egypt.

17I have perfumed my bed with myrrh, aloes, and cinnamon.

18Come, let’s take our fill of loving until the morning. Let’s solace ourselves with loving.
