Proverbs 7:6-7
Proverbs 7:6-7 New International Version (NIV)
At the window of my house I looked down through the lattice. I saw among the simple, I noticed among the young men, a youth who had no sense.
Proverbs 7:6-12 The Message (MSG)
As I stood at the window of my house looking out through the shutters, Watching the mindless crowd stroll by, I spotted a young man without any sense Arriving at the corner of the street where she lived, then turning up the path to her house. It was dusk, the evening coming on, the darkness thickening into night. Just then, a woman met him— she’d been lying in wait for him, dressed to seduce him. Brazen and brash she was, restless and roaming, never at home, Walking the streets, loitering in the mall, hanging out at every corner in town.
