9. Then you will understand righteousness and judgmentand equity, and every good path.
10. When wisdom enters your heart,and knowledge is pleasant to your soul,
11. discretion will preserve you;understanding will keep you,
12. to deliver you from the way of the evil man,from the man who speaks perverse things,
13. from those who leave the paths of uprightnessto walk in the ways of darkness;
14. who rejoice to do evil,and delight in the perversity of the wicked;
15. whose ways are crooked,and who are devious in their paths;
16. to deliver you from the immoral woman,even from the seductress who flatters with her words,
17. who forsakes the guide of her youth,and forgets the covenant of her God.
