Proverbs 2:14-18 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

14. Who delight in doing eviland celebrate perversity;

15. Whose ways are crooked,whose paths are devious;

16. Saving you from a stranger,from a foreign woman with her smooth words,

17. One who forsakes the companion of her youthand forgets the covenant of her God;

18. For her path sinks down to death,and her footsteps lead to the shades.
