Proverbs 2:10-19

10For wisdom will enter your heart, and moral knowledge will be attractive to you.

11Discretion will protect you, understanding will guard you,

12to deliver you from the way of the wicked, from those speaking perversity,

13who leave the upright paths to walk on the dark ways,

14who delight in doing evil, they rejoice in perverse evil;

15whose paths are morally crooked, and who are devious in their ways;

16to deliver you from the adulteress, from the sexually loose woman who speaks flattering words;

17who leaves the husband from her younger days, and forgets her marriage covenant made before God.

18For her house sinks down to death, and her paths lead to the place of the departed spirits.

19None who go in to her will return, nor will they reach the paths of life.
