Proverbs 2:11-16

English Standard Version

^11 (A)discretion will ^(B)watch over you,
    understanding will guard you,
¹² delivering you from the way of evil,
    from men of perverted speech,
¹³ who forsake the paths of uprightness
    to ^(C)walk in the ways of darkness,
¹⁴ who ^(D)rejoice in doing evil
    and ^(E)delight in the perverseness of evil,
¹⁵ men whose ^(F)paths are crooked,
    ^(G)and who are ^(H)devious in their ways.
