18 Come, let’s drink deeply of lovemaking until morning. Let’s feast on each other’s love! 19 My husband isn’t home; he went on a long journey. 20 He took a bag of money with him and will come home at the time of the full moon.” 21 She seduces him with her persistent pleading; she lures with her flattering talk. 22 He follows her impulsively like an ox going to the slaughter, like a deer bounding toward a trap 23 until an arrow pierces its liver, like a bird darting into a snare— he doesn’t know it will cost him his life.
