Proverbs 2:7-22
New International Version
7 He holds success in store for the upright,
he is a shield(A) to those whose walk is blameless,(B)
8 for he guards the course of the just
and protects the way of his faithful ones.(C)
9 Then you will understand(D) what is right and just
and fair—every good path.
10 For wisdom will enter your heart,(E)
and knowledge will be pleasant to your soul.
11 Discretion will protect you,
and understanding will guard you.(F)
12 Wisdom will save(G) you from the ways of wicked men,
from men whose words are perverse,
13 who have left the straight paths
to walk in dark ways,(H)
14 who delight in doing wrong
and rejoice in the perverseness of evil,(I)
15 whose paths are crooked(J)
and who are devious in their ways.(K)
16 Wisdom will save you also from the adulterous woman,(L)
from the wayward woman with her seductive words,
17 who has left the partner of her youth
and ignored the covenant she made before God.[a](M)
18 Surely her house leads down to death
and her paths to the spirits of the dead.(N)
19 None who go to her return
or attain the paths of life.(O)

- Proverbs 2:17 Or covenant of her God
Proverbs 2:7-22
New Living Translation
7 He grants a treasure of common sense to the honest.
He is a shield to those who walk with integrity.
8 He guards the paths of the just
and protects those who are faithful to him.
9 Then you will understand what is right, just, and fair,
and you will find the right way to go.
10 For wisdom will enter your heart,
and knowledge will fill you with joy.
11 Wise choices will watch over you.
Understanding will keep you safe.
12 Wisdom will save you from evil people,
from those whose words are twisted.
13 These men turn from the right way
to walk down dark paths.
14 They take pleasure in doing wrong,
and they enjoy the twisted ways of evil.
15 Their actions are crooked,
and their ways are wrong.
16 Wisdom will save you from the immoral woman,
from the seductive words of the promiscuous woman.
17 She has abandoned her husband
and ignores the covenant she made before God.
18 Entering her house leads to death;
it is the road to the grave.[a]
19 The man who visits her is doomed.
He will never reach the paths of life.
20 So follow the steps of the good,
and stay on the paths of the righteous.
21 For only the godly will live in the land,
and those with integrity will remain in it.
22 But the wicked will be removed from the land,
and the treacherous will be uprooted.
