16 Saving you from a stranger, from a foreign woman with her smooth words, 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 One who forsakes the companion of her youth and forgets the covenant of 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 For her path sinks down to death, and her footsteps lead to the shades. 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 enter there come back, or gain 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.
