| 16 | [Wisdom will] also save you from an adulterous woman, from a loose woman with her smooth talk, | So you will be delivered from the forbidden woman, from the adulteress with her smooth words, | Wisdom will save you also from the adulterous woman, from the wayward woman with her seductive words, | |
| 17 | who leaves [her husband,]the closest friend of her youth,[and forgets her marriage vows to her God.] | who forsakes the companion of her youth and forgets the covenant of her God; | who has left the partner of her youth and ignored the covenant she made before God. | |
| 18 | Her house sinks down to death. Her ways lead to the souls of the dead. | for her house sinks down to death, and her paths to the departed; | Surely her house leads down to death and her paths to the spirits of the dead. | |
| 19 | None who have sex with her come back. Nor do they ever reach the paths of life. | none who go to her come back, nor do they regain the paths of life. | None who go to her return or attain the paths of life. | |
