Contextual Overview
6 For at the window of my house, I looked forth through my lattice. 7 I saw among the simple ones. I discerned among the youths a young man void of understanding, 8 Passing through the street near her corner, He went the way to her house, 9 In the twilight, in the evening of the day, In the middle of the night and in the darkness. 10 Behold, there a woman met him with the attire of a prostitute, And with crafty intent. 11 She is loud and defiant. Her feet don't stay in her house. 12 Now she is in the streets, now in the squares, And lurking at every corner. 13 So she caught him, and kissed him. With an impudent face she said to him: 14 "Sacrifices of peace-offerings are with me. This day I have paid my vows. 15 Therefore I came out to meet you, To diligently seek your face, And I have found you.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
So she caught him, and kissed him,.... The young man that went near her corner where she was plying, or in the way to her house, where she was sitting, or standing, waiting and watching for such an opportunity, for such a person, as a prey to fasten on; and no sooner she saw him, and come up to him, but, without any ceremony or address, she laid hold upon him, as the word l signifies, threw her arms about his neck, and embraced him in them; and, what is unusual for women to do, kissed him, in order to stir up wanton affections and impure desires in him;
[and] with an impudent face; or, "and she strengthened her face" m; rubbed her forehead, put on a brasen face, a whore's front; see Jeremiah 3:3. And
said unto him; accosted him in the following manner, without shame or blushing.
