16 Wisdom will save you also from the adulterous woman,(A)
    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](B)
18 Surely her house leads down to death
    and her paths to the spirits of the dead.(C)
19 None who go to her return
    or attain the paths of life.(D)

20 Thus you will walk in the ways of the good
    and keep to the paths of the righteous.
