Proverbs 2:13 in context

The verses around it, from Proverbs 2.

9 Then you will discern righteousness and justice and equity—every good path.

10 For wisdom will enter your heart, and knowledge will delight your soul.

11 Discretion will watch over you, and understanding will guard you,

12 to deliver you from the way of evil, from the man who speaks perversity,

13 from those who leave the straight paths to walk in the ways of darkness,

14 from those who enjoy doing evil and rejoice in the twistedness of evil,

15 whose paths are crooked and whose ways are devious.

16 It will rescue you from the forbidden woman, from the stranger with seductive words

17 who abandons the partner of her youth and forgets the covenant of her God.
