Proverbs

¹¹Discretion shall watch over you, understanding shall keep you, ¹²To deliver you from the way of evil and the evil men, from men who speak perverse things and are liars, ¹³Men who forsake the paths of uprightness to walk in the ways of darkness, ¹⁴Who rejoice to do evil and delight in the perverseness of evil, ¹⁵Who are crooked in their ways, wayward and devious in their paths. ¹⁶[Discretion shall watch over you, understanding shall keep you] to deliver you from the alien woman, from the outsider with her flattering words, [Prov. 2:11.] ¹⁷Who forsakes the husband and guide of her youth and forgets the covenant of her God.
