14 She sits in her doorway on the heights overlooking the city.

15 She calls out to men going by who are minding their own business.

16 “Come in with me,” she urges the simple. To those who lack good judgment, she says,

17 “Stolen water is refreshing; food eaten in secret tastes the best!”

18 But little do they know that the dead are there. Her guests are in the depths of the grave.
