Proverbs 2:10–22
10 For awisdom will enter your heart
And bknowledge will be pleasant to your soul;
11 Discretion will aguard you,
Understanding will watch over you,
12 To adeliver you from the way of evil,
From the man who speaks bperverse things;
13 From those who aleave the paths of uprightness
To walk in the bways of darkness;
14 Who adelight in doing evil
And rejoice in the perversity of evil;
15 Whose paths are acrooked,
And who are devious in their ways;
16 To adeliver you from the strange woman,
From the 1badulteress who flatters with her words;
17 That leaves the acompanion of her youth
And forgets the bcovenant of her God;
18 For aher house 1sinks down to death
And her tracks lead to the 2dead;
19 None awho go to her return again,
Nor do they reach the bpaths of life.
20 So you will awalk in the way of good men
And keep to the bpaths of the righteous.
21 For athe upright will 1live in the land
And bthe blameless will remain in it;
22 But athe wicked will be cut off from the land
