צְֽרוֹר־הַכֶּסֶף לָקַח בְּיָדוֹ לְיוֹם הַכֵּסֶא יָבֹא בֵיתֽוֹ
He hath taken the bag of money with him; He will come home at the full moon.’
הִטַּתּוּ בְּרֹב לִקְחָהּ בְּחֵלֶק שְׂפָתֶיהָ תַּדִּיחֶֽנּוּ
With her much fair speech she causeth him to yield, With the blandishment of her lips she enticeth him away.
הוֹלֵךְ אַחֲרֶיהָ פִּתְאֹם כְּשׁוֹר אֶל־טָבַח יָבוֹא וּכְעֶכֶס אֶל־מוּסַר אֱוִֽיל
He goeth after her straightway, As an ox that goeth to the slaughter, Or as one in fetters to the correction of the fool;
עַד יְפַלַּח חֵץ כְּֽבֵדוֹ כְּמַהֵר צִפּוֹר אֶל־פָּח וְלֹֽא־יָדַע כִּֽי־בְנַפְשׁוֹ הֽוּא
Till an arrow strike through his liver; As a bird hasteneth to the snare— And knoweth not that it is at the cost of his life.
וְעַתָּה בָנִים שִׁמְעוּ־לִי וְהַקְשִׁיבוּ לְאִמְרֵי־פִֽי
Now therefore, O ye children, hearken unto me, And attend to the words of my mouth.
