"to deliver you from the way of the wicked, from those speaking perversity,"
— Proverbs 2:12, NET Bible
“To deliver thee from the way of the evil man, from the man that speaketh froward things;”
“To deliver thee from the way of evil, From the men that speak perverse things; ”
“to deliver you from the way of evil, from the men who speak perverse things;”
“That thou mayst be delivered from the evil way, and from the man that speaketh perverse things:”
“Giving you salvation from the evil man, from those whose words are false;”
“To deliver thee from the way of the evil man, from the man that speaketh froward things;”
Then you will understand righteousness and justice and equity– every good way.
For wisdom will enter your heart, and moral knowledge will be attractive to you.
Discretion will protect you, understanding will guard you,
to deliver you from the way of the wicked, from those speaking perversity,
who leave the upright paths to walk on the dark ways,
who delight in doing evil, they rejoice in perverse evil;
whose paths are morally crooked, and who are devious in their ways;
