Proverbs 2:12-19 English Revised Version (ERV)

12. To deliver thee from the way of evil, from the men that speak froward things;

13. Who forsake the paths of uprightness, to walk in the ways of darkness;

14. Who rejoice to do evil, and delight in the frowardness of evil;

15. Who are crooked in their ways, and perverse in their paths:

16. To deliver thee from the strange woman, even from the stranger which flattereth with her words;

17. Which forsaketh the friend of her youth, and forgetteth the covenant of her God:

18. For her house inclineth unto death, and her paths unto the dead:

19. None that go unto her return again, neither do they attain unto the paths of life:
