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.

From the [a](B)adulteress who flatters with her words;
17 That leaves the (C)companion of her youth
And forgets the (D)covenant of her God;
18 For (E)her house [b]sinks down to death
And her tracks lead to the [c]dead;
19 None (F)who go to her return again,
Nor do they reach the (G)paths of life.
