8 Passing on in the street, near her corner, And the way to her house he doth step, 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 of day, In the darkness of night and blackness. 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, lo, a woman to meet him -- (A harlot's dress, and watchful of heart, 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 Noisy she is, and stubborn, In her house her feet rest not. 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 in an out-place, now in broad places, And near every corner she lieth in wait) -- 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.)
