"For her house is on the way down to death; her footsteps go down to the shades:"
— Proverbs 2:18, Bible in Basic English
“For her house inclineth unto death, and her paths unto the dead.”
“For her house inclineth unto death, And her paths unto the dead; ”
“for her house leads down to death, her paths to the dead.”
“For she has set her house by death, and her paths by the place of the departed spirits.”
“And hath forgotten the covenant of her God: for her house inclineth unto death, and her paths to hell.”
“For her house inclineth unto death, and her paths unto the dead.”
Whose ways are not straight, and whose footsteps are turned to evil:
To take you out of the power of the strange woman, who says smooth words with her tongue;
Who is false to the husband of her early years, and does not keep the agreement of her God in mind:
For her house is on the way down to death; her footsteps go down to the shades:
Those who go to her do not come back again; their feet do not keep in the ways of life:
So that you may go in the way of good men, and keep in the footsteps of the upright.
For the upright will be living in the land, and the good will have it for their heritage.
