Proverbs 2:18 in context

  1. 16to deliver you from the strange woman,
    even from the foreigner who flatters with her words,
  2. 17who forsakes the friend of her youth,
    and forgets the covenant of her God;
  3. 18for her house leads down to death,
    her paths to the departed spirits.
  4. 19None who go to her return again,
    neither do they attain to the paths of life.
  5. 20So you may walk in the way of good men,
    and keep the paths of the righteous.
