American Standard Version
"To deliver thee from the strange woman, Even from the foreigner that flattereth with her words; "
— Proverbs 2:16, American Standard Version
“To deliver thee from the strange woman, even from the stranger which flattereth with her words;”
“To deliver you from the strange woman, even from the foreigner who flatters with her words;”
“to deliver you from the adulterous woman, from the loose woman who has flattered you with her words;”
“That thou mayst be delivered from the strange woman, and from the stranger, who softeneth her words;”
“To take you out of the power of the strange woman, who says smooth words with her tongue;”
“To deliver thee from the strange woman, even from the stranger which flattereth with her words;”
Who forsake the paths of uprightness, To walk in the ways of darkness;
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 thee from the strange woman, Even from the foreigner that flattereth with her words;
That forsaketh the friend of her youth, And forgetteth the covenant of her God:
For her house inclineth unto death, And her paths unto the dead;
None that go unto her return again, Neither do they attain unto the paths of life:
