New Testament

Proverbs 2:14-22 New International Version Anglicized (NIVUK)

14. who delight in doing wrongand rejoice in the perverseness of evil,

15. whose paths are crookedand who are devious in their ways.

16. Wisdom will save you also from the adulterous woman,from the wayward woman with her seductive words,

17. who has left the partner of her youthand ignored the covenant she made before God.

18. Surely her house leads down to deathand her paths to the spirits of the dead.

19. None who go to her returnor attain the paths of life.

20. Thus you will walk in the ways of the goodand keep to the paths of the righteous.

21. For the upright will live in the land,and the blameless will remain in it;

22. but the wicked will be cut off from the land,and the unfaithful will be torn from it.
