2 Timothy 3:6 in other translations
For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts,
They are the kind who worm their way into households and captivate vulnerable women who are weighed down with sins and led astray by various passions,
For of these are those who creep into houses, and take captive gullible women loaded down with sins, led away by various lusts,

In context
3 without natural affection, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, fierce, not lovers of good,
4 traitors, headstrong, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God,
5 holding a form of godliness but having denied its power. Turn away from these, also.
6 For some of these are people who creep into houses and take captive gullible women loaded down with sins, led away by various lusts,
7 always learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.
8 Even as Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses, so these also oppose the truth, men corrupted in mind, who concerning the faith are rejected.
9 But they will proceed no further. For their folly will be evident to all men, as theirs also came to be.
