4. Say to wisdom, “You are my sister,”and call understanding your kinswoman,
5. that they may keep you from the immoral woman,from the seductress who flatters with her words.
6. For at the window of my houseI looked through my casement,
7. and saw among the simple ones,I discerned among the youths,a young man void of understanding,
8. passing through the street near her corner;and he went the way to her house
9. in the twilight, in the evening,in the black and dark night.
