Proverbs 2:13-22

View Full Chapter

13who have left the straight paths to walk in dark ways,

14who delight in doing wrong and rejoice in the perverseness of evil,

15whose paths are crooked and who are devious in their ways.

16Wisdom will save you also from the adulterous woman, from the wayward woman with her seductive words,

17who has left the partner of her youth and ignored the covenant she made before God. Or covenant of her God

18Surely her house leads down to death and her paths to the spirits of the dead.

19None who go to her return or attain the paths of life.

20Thus you will walk in the ways of the good and keep to the paths of the righteous.

21For the upright will live in the land, and the blameless will remain in it; 22but the wicked will be cut off from the land, and the unfaithful will be torn from it.
