15. whose paths are crooked, and whose ways are devious.
16. It will rescue you from a forbidden woman, from a stranger with her flattering talk,
17. who abandons the companion of her youth and forgets the covenant of her God;
18. for her house sinks down to deathand her ways to the land of the departed spirits.
19. None return who go to her;none reach the paths of life.
20. So follow the way of good people, and keep to the paths of the righteous.
