²⁴ To keep thee from the evil woman, From the flattery of the foreigner's tongue.

¹⁶ To deliver thee from the strange woman, Even from the foreigner that flattereth with her words;

⁵ That they may keep thee from the strange woman, From the foreigner that flattereth with her words.

²⁶ And I find more bitter than death the woman whose heart is snares and nets, `and' whose hands are bands: whoso pleaseth God shall escape from her; but the sinner shall be taken by her.
