Proverbs 9:16 - Forerunner Commentary

Proverbs 9:16

14 For she sits at the door of her house,
On a seat ^aby the highest places of the city,

15 To call to those who pass by,
Who go straight on their way:

16 “Whoever^a is simple, let him turn in here”;
And as for him who lacks understanding, she says to him,

17 “Stolen^a water is sweet,
And bread eaten in secret is pleasant.”

18 But he does not know that ^athe dead are there,
That her guests are in the depths of¹ hell.
