Proverbs 7:14-20 Modern English Version (MEV)

14. “I have peace offerings with me;this day have I paid my vows.

15. Therefore I came out to meet you,diligently to seek your face, and I have found you.

16. I have decked my bed with coverings of tapestry,with carved works, with fine linen of Egypt.

17. I have perfumed my bedwith myrrh, aloes, and cinnamon.

18. Come, let us take our fill of love until the morning;let us solace ourselves with love.

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 will come home at the day appointed.”
