14 Who are glad when they have done evil, and rejoice in the most wicked things:
15 Whose ways are perverse, and their steps infamous.
16 That thou mayst be delivered from the strange woman, and from the stranger, who softeneth her words;
17 And forsaketh the guide of her youth,
18 And hath forgotten the covenant of her God: for her house inclineth unto death, and her paths to hell.
19 None that go in unto her, shall return again, neither shall they take hold of the paths of life.
20 That thou mayst walk in a good way: and mayst keep the paths of the just.
