Proverbs 2:16-19
Legacy Standard Bible
16 To deliver you from the [a](A)strange woman,
From the [b](B)foreign woman who flatters with her words;
17 Who forsakes the close (C)companion of her youth
And forgets the (D)covenant of her God;
18 For (E)her house [c]sinks down to death
And her tracks descend to the [d]dead;
19 All (F)who go to her will not return,
And they will not reach the (G)paths of life.

International Standard Version
16 delivering you from the adulteress,
from the immoral[a] woman with her seductive words,
17 someone who abandoned the companion of her youth
and forgot the covenant of her God.
18 For her house leads down to death,
and her paths down to the realm of the dead.
19 None who go to her return,
nor do they reach the paths of life.
