16 to remove thee far from the straight way, and to estrange thee from a righteous purpose. My son, let not evil counsel overtake thee, 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 of her who has forsaken the instruction of her youth, and forgotten the covenant of 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 she has fixed her house near death, and guided her wheels near Hades with the giants. 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 that go by her shall return, neither shall they take hold of right paths, for they are not apprehended of the years 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.
