Proverbs 7:15
13 She seizes him and kisses him; she brazenly says to him:
14 “I have made my peace offerings; today I have paid my vows.
So I came out to meet you; I sought you, and I have found you.
16 I have decked my bed with coverings, with colored linen from Egypt.
17 I have perfumed my bed with myrrh, with aloes, and with cinnamon.
Here the Bible tells a story about someone else. Ask yourself what it can say to us today. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
