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.
20	So walk in the way of good people and stay on the paths of righteous people.	So you will walk in the way of the good and keep to the paths of the righteous.	Thus you will walk in the ways of the good and keep to the paths of the righteous.
21	Decent people will live in the land. People of integrity will remain in it.	For the upright will inhabit the land, and those with integrity will remain in it,	For the upright will live in the land, and the blameless will remain in it;
22	But wicked people will be cut off from the land and treacherous people will be torn from it.	but the wicked will be cut off from the land, and the treacherous will be rooted out of it.	but the wicked will be cut off from the land, and the unfaithful will be torn from it.
