Proverbs 9:13-18
English Standard Version
The Way of Folly
13 (A)The woman Folly is (B)loud;
she is seductive[a] and (C)knows nothing.
14 She sits at the door of her house;
she takes a seat on (D)the highest places of the town,
15 calling to those who pass by,
who are (E)going straight on their way,
16 (F)“Whoever is simple, let him turn in here!”
And to him who lacks sense she says,
17 (G)“Stolen water is sweet,
and (H)bread eaten in secret is pleasant.”
18 But he does not know (I)that the dead[b] are there,
that her guests are in the depths of Sheol.

Proverbs 9:13-18
New Living Translation
Folly Calls for a Hearing
13 The woman named Folly is brash.
She is ignorant and doesn’t know it.
14 She sits in her doorway
on the heights overlooking the city.
15 She calls out to men going by
who are minding their own business.
16 “Come in with me,” she urges the simple.
To those who lack good judgment, she says,
17 “Stolen water is refreshing;
food eaten in secret tastes the best!”
18 But little do they know that the dead are there.
Her guests are in the depths of the grave.[a]
