who rejoice to do evil, and delight in the perverseness of evil;
who are crooked in their ways, and wayward in their paths:
To deliver you from the strange woman, even from the foreigner who flatters with her words;
who forsakes the friend of her youth, and forgets the covenant of her God:
for her house leads down to death, her paths to the departed spirits.

that you may walk in the way of good men, and keep the paths of the righteous.
