18 Come, let us take our fill of love until the morning; let us embrace each other with passion.

19 For my husband is not at home, he has gone on a long journey:

20 He has taken a bag of money with him, and it will be a long time before he comes home.

21 With much fair speech she misled him, with the flattering of her lips she forced him.

22 He went after her as a little child, as an ox that goes to the slaughter, and as a dog to be muzzled;

23 And as a stag whose liver is pierced with an arrow, as a bird hastens to the snare, and does not know that he goes to his death.
