Wisdom 1:3-5

Common English Bible

³ Perverse reasoning separates people from God. His power exposes the foolish people who test him.

⁴ Wisdom will avoid a deceptive soul that plans evil. Wisdom won’t make her home in a body that is devoted to sin. ⁵ A holy, instructive spirit will flee deceit and leave when ignorant people start to plot. It is ashamed to be found in the presence of wrongdoing.
