Keep commandments my and live and instruction my like [the] pupil of eyes your.
| اعْصِبْهَا عَلَى أَصَابِعِكَ، وَاكْتُبْهَا عَلَى صَفْحَاتِ قَلْبِكَ. | ٣ 3 |
Bind them on fingers your write them on [the] tablet of heart your.
| قُلْ لِلْحِكْمَةِ: أَنْتِ أُخْتِي، وَلِلْفِطْنَةِ: أَنْتِ قَرِيبَتِي. | ٤ 4 |
Say to wisdom [are] sister my you and a relative to discernment you will call.
| فَهُمَا تَحْفَظَانِكَ مِنَ الْمَرْأَةِ الْعَاهِرَةِ، وَالزَّوْجَةِ الْفَاسِقَةِ الَّتِي تَتَمَلَّقُ بِكَلامِهَا. | ٥ 5 |
To keep you from a woman strange from a foreign [woman] [who] words her she makes smooth.
| فَإِنِّي أَشْرَفْتُ مِنْ كُوَّةِ بَيْتِي، وَأَطْلَلْتُ مِنْ خِلالِ نَافِذَتِي، | ٦ 6 |
For at [the] window of house my through lattice my I looked down.
| فَشَاهَدْتُ بَيْنَ الْبَنِينَ الْحَمْقَى شَابّاً مُجَرَّداً مِنَ الْفَهْمِ، | ٧ 7 |
And I saw among the naive people I observed among the sons a youth lacking of heart.
| يَجْتَازُ الطَّرِيقَ صَوْبَ الْمُنْعَطَفِ، بِاتِّجَاهِ الشَّارِعِ الْمُفْضِي إِلَى بَيْتِهَا. | ٨ 8 |
[who] was passing by In the street beside corner her and [the] direction of house her he strode.

At twilight in [the] evening of [the] day in [the] middle of [the] night and darkness.
| فَإِذَا بِامْرَأَةٍ تَسْتَقْبِلُهُ فِي زِيِّ زَانِيَةٍ وَقَلْبٍ مُخَادِعٍ. | ١٠ 10 |
And there! a woman to meet him [the] garment of a prostitute and guarded of heart.
| صَخَّابَةٌ وَجَامِحَةٌ لَا تَسْتَقِرُّ قَدَمَاهَا فِي بَيْتِهَا. | ١١ 11 |
[is] boisterous She and rebellious in house her not they stay feet her.
| تَرَاهَا تَارَةً فِي الْخَارِجِ، وَطَوْراً فِي سَاحَاتِ الأَسْوَاقِ، تَكْمُنُ عِنْدَ كُلِّ مُنْعَطَفٍ. | ١٢ 12 |
A time - in the street a time in the open places and beside every corner she lies in wait.
| فَأَمْسَكَتْهُ وَقَبَّلَتْهُ وَقَالَتْ لَهُ بِوَجْهٍ وَقِحٍ: | ١٣ 13 |
And she takes hold on him and she kisses him she has made firm face her and she said to him.
| «كَانَ عَلَيَّ أَنْ أُقَدِّمَ ذَبَائِحَ سَلامٍ، فَأَوْفَيْتُ الْيَوْمَ نُذُورِي. | ١٤ 14 |
Sacrifices of peace offerings [are] on me this day I have paid vows my.

There-fore I have come out to meet you to seek face your and I have found you.

| فَتَعَالَ لِنَرْتَوِيَ مِنَ الْحُبِّ حَتَّى الصَّبَاحِ، وَنَتَلَذَّذَ بِمُتَعِ الْغَرَامِ. | ١٨ 18 |
Come! let us take our fill of love until the morning let us delight ourselves with love.
| فَإِنَّ زَوْجِي لَيْسَ فِي الْبَيْتِ، قَدْ مَضَى فِي رِحْلَةٍ بَعِيدَةٍ. | ١٩ 19 |
For not the husband [is] in house his he has gone on a journey from a distance.
| وَأَخَذَ مَعَهُ صُرَّةً مُكْتَنِزَةً بِالْمَالِ، وَلَنْ يَعُودَ إِلّا عِنْدَ اكْتِمَالِ الْبَدْرِ». | ٢٠ 20 |

| فَأَغْوَتْهُ بِكَثْرَةِ أَفَانِينِ كَلامِهَا، وَرَنَّحَتْهُ بِتَمَلُّقِ شَفَتَيْهَا. | ٢١ 21 |
She turns him with [the] greatness of persuasiveness her with [the] seductiveness of lips her she impels him.
| فَمَضَى عَلَى التَّوِّ فِي إِثْرِهَا، كَثَوْرٍ مَسُوقٍ إِلَى الذَّبْحِ، أَوْ أَيِّلٍ وَقَعَ فِي فَخٍّ. | ٢٢ 22 |
[he is] walking Behind her suddenly like an ox [which] to [the] slaughter it goes and like an anklet to [the] chastening of a fool.
| إِلَى أَنْ يَنْفُذَ سَهْمٌ فِي كَبِدِهِ، وَيَكُونَ كَعُصْفُورٍ مُنْدَفِعٍ إِلَى شَرَكٍ، لَا يَدْرِي أَنَّهُ قَدْ نُصِبَ لِلْقَضَاءِ عَلَيْهِ. | ٢٣ 23 |
