New Testament

Proverbs 7:5-12 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

5. They will keep you from a woman who commits adultery. They will keep you from the smooth talk of a sinful wife.

6. I stood at the window of my house. I looked out through it.

7. Among those who were childish I saw a young man who had no sense.

8. He went down the street near that sinful woman's corner. He walked toward her house.

9. The sun had gone down. Day was fading. The darkness of night was falling.

10. A woman came out to meet him. She was dressed like a prostitute and had a clever plan.

11. She was a loud and pushy woman. She never stayed at home.

12. Sometimes in the streets, sometimes at other places, at every corner she would wait.
