8 who crosses the street at the corner and close to the way of that house. passing along the street near her corner, taking the road to her house He was going down the street near her corner, walking along in the direction of her house
9 He steps into shadows, as day becomes evening, into the darkness and gloom of the night. in the twilight, in the evening, at the time of night and darkness. at twilight, as the day was fading, as the dark of night set in.
10 And behold, a woman meets him, dressed like a harlot, prepared to captivate souls: chattering and rambling, And behold, the woman meets him, dressed as a prostitute, wily of heart. Then out came a woman to meet him, dressed like a prostitute and with crafty intent.
11 unwilling to bear silence, unable to keep her feet at home, She is loud and wayward; her feet do not stay at home; (She is unruly and defiant, her feet never stay at home;
12 now outside, now in the streets, now lying in ambush near the corners. now in the street, now in the market, and at every corner she lies in wait. now in the street, now in the squares, at every corner she lurks.)
