Proverbs 2:10-18

CLV(i) 10 For wisdom shall come into your heart, And knowledge shall be pleasant to your soul." 11 Foresight, it shall guard you; Comprehension, it shall preserve you, 12 So as to rescue you from the way of evil, From the man who is speaking duplicity, 13 From those who forsake the paths of uprightness To walk in the ways of darkness, 14 Who rejoice in doing evil, Who exult in the duplicity of evil, 15 Whose paths are perverse, And who are devious in their routes." 16 This will also rescue you from the strange woman, Or from the foreign woman who makes her words slick, 17 Who forsakes the mentor of her youth, And who forgets the covenant of her Elohim." 18 For she slips down to death with her house And her routes to the Rephaim;
