Contextual Overview
13The foolish woman is restless and noisy; She is naive and easily misled and thoughtless, and knows nothing at all [of eternal value]. 14She sits at the doorway of her house, On a seat by the high and conspicuous places of the city, 15Calling to those who pass by, Who are making their paths straight:16"Whoever is naive or inexperienced, let him turn in here!" And to him who lacks understanding (common sense), she says, 17"Stolen waters (pleasures) are sweet [because they are forbidden]; And bread eaten in secret is pleasant." 18But he does not know that the spirits of the dead are there, And that her guests are [already] in the depths of Sheol (the nether world, the place of the dead).
