Proverbs 2:16-19
American Standard Version
16 To deliver thee from the strange woman,
Even from the foreigner that [a]flattereth with her words;
17 That forsaketh the [b]friend of her youth,
And forgetteth the covenant of her God:
18 For [c]her house inclineth unto death,
And her paths unto [d]the dead;
19 None that go unto her return again,
Neither do they attain unto the paths of life:
