Proverbs 9:13-18
21st Century King James Version

14 For she sitteth at the door of her house on a seat in the high places of the city,

16 “Whoso is simple, let him turn in hither.” And as for him that lacketh understanding, she saith to him,

Proverbs 9:13-18
American Standard Version
13 [a]The foolish woman is clamorous;
She is [b]simple, and knoweth nothing.
14 And she sitteth at the door of her house,
On a seat in the high places of the city,
15 To call to them that pass by,
Who go right on their ways:
16 Whoso is simple, let him turn in hither;
And as for him that is void of understanding, she saith to him,
17 Stolen waters are sweet,
And bread eaten in secret is pleasant.
18 But he knoweth not that [c]the dead are there;
That her guests are in the depths of Sheol.
