52 Week Bible Reading Plan

1

My son, keep my words and store up my commands within you.

2

Keep my commands and you will live; guard my teachings as the apple of your eye.

3

Bind them on your fingers; write them on the tablet of your heart.

4

Say to wisdom, "You are my sister," and call understanding your kinsman;

5

they will keep you from the adulteress, from the wayward wife with her seductive words.

6

At the window of my house I looked out through the lattice.

7

I saw among the simple, I noticed among the young men, a youth who lacked judgment.

8

He was going down the street near her corner, walking along in the direction of her house

9

at twilight, as the day was fading, as the dark of night set in.

10

Then out came a woman to meet him, dressed like a prostitute and with crafty intent.

11

(She is loud and defiant, her feet never stay at home;

12

now in the street, now in the squares, at every corner she lurks.)

13

She took hold of him and kissed him and with a brazen face she said:

14

"I have fellowship offerings at home; today I fulfilled my vows.

15

So I came out to meet you; I looked for you and have found you!

16

I have covered my bed with colored linens from Egypt.

17

I have perfumed my bed with myrrh, aloes and cinnamon.

18

Come, let's drink deep of love till morning; let's enjoy ourselves with love!

19

My husband is not at home; he has gone on a long journey.

20

He took his purse filled with money and will not be home till full moon."

21

With persuasive words she led him astray; she seduced him with her smooth talk.

22

All at once he followed her like an ox going to the slaughter, like a deer stepping into a noose

23

till an arrow pierces his liver, like a bird darting into a snare, little knowing it will cost him his life.

24

Now then, my sons, listen to me; pay attention to what I say.

25

Do not let your heart turn to her ways or stray into her paths.

26

Many are the victims she has brought down; her slain are a mighty throng.

27

Her house is a highway to the grave, leading down to the chambers of death.
