13 Who forsake the paths of uprightness, To walk in the ways of darkness;
14 Who rejoice to do evil, And delight in the perverseness of evil;
15 Who are crooked in their ways, And wayward in their paths:
16 To deliver you from the strange woman, Even from the foreigner who flatters with her words;
17 Who forsakes the friend of her youth, And forgets the covenant of her God:
18 For her house leads down to death, Her paths to the dead.
19 None who go to her return again, Neither do they attain to the paths of life:
