Proverbs 2:17-19
Common English Bible

17 She leaves behind the partner of her youth;
    she even forgets her covenant with God.
18 Her house sinks down to death,
    and her paths go down to the shadowy dead.
19 All those who go to her will never return;
    they will never again reach the ways of the living.

Nor do they [b]regain the paths of life—
