Proverbs 2:16-19
World English Bible
16 to deliver you from the strange woman,
even from the foreigner who flatters with her words,
17 who forsakes the friend of her youth,
and forgets the covenant of her God;
18 for her house leads down to death,
her paths to the departed spirits.
19 None who go to her return again,
neither do they attain to the paths of life.
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:
