Proverbs 2:16-19
New American Standard Bible

16 To (A)rescue you from the strange woman,
From the (B)foreign woman who flatters with her words,
17 Who leaves the (C)companion of her youth
And forgets the (D)covenant of her God;
18 For (E)her house sinks down to death,
And her tracks lead to the [a]dead;
19 None (F)who go to her return,
Nor do they reach the (G)paths of life.

16 It will rescue you from a forbidden woman,(A)
from a stranger[a] with her flattering talk,(B)
17 who abandons the companion of her youth(C)
and forgets the covenant of her God;
18 for her house sinks down to death
and her ways to the land of the departed spirits.(D)
19 None return who go to her;
none reach the paths of life.(E)
