King James Version
"Which forsaketh the guide of her youth, and forgetteth the covenant of her God."
— Proverbs 2:17, King James Version
“That forsaketh the friend of her youth, And forgetteth the covenant of her God: ”
“who forsakes the friend of her youth, and forgets the covenant of her God:”
“who leaves the husband from her younger days, and has ignored her marriage covenant made before God.”
“And forsaketh the guide of her youth,”
“Who is false to the husband of her early years, and does not keep the agreement of her God in mind:”
“Which forsaketh the guide of her youth, and forgetteth the covenant of her God.”
Who rejoice to do evil, and delight in the frowardness of the wicked;
Whose ways are crooked, and they froward in their paths:
To deliver thee from the strange woman, even from the stranger which flattereth with her words;
Which forsaketh the guide 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 take they hold of the paths of life.
That thou mayest walk in the way of good men, and keep the paths of the righteous.
