Proverbs 7 : 7 (LXXEN)
passing by the corner in the passages *Gr. of near her house,
Proverbs 7 : 8 (LXXEN)
and speaking, in the dark of the evening,
Proverbs 7 : 9 (LXXEN)
when there happens to be the stillness of night and of darkness:

Her house is the *Gr. ways way of hell, leading down to the chambers of death.
