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 silver 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.
