	LAMSA Lamsa Bible	ESV English Standard Version	NIV New International Version
8	Passing through the street near the corner of her 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	In the twilight, in the evening, in the black and dark 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, there came out a woman with the attire of a harlot to meet one of them, a woman who fluttered the hearts of young men.	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	She is rebellious and gluttonous; her feet do not abide in her house;	She is loud and wayward; her feet do not stay at home;	(She is unruly and defiant, her feet never stay at home;
12	But she roams around outside, now in the streets, and now lying in wait at 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.)
