Proverbs 2:16-19 (HCSB)
16 It will rescue you from a forbidden woman,
from a stranger with her flattering talk,
17 who abandons the companion of her youth
and forgets the covenant of her God;
18 for her house sinks down to death
and her ways to the land of the departed spirits.
19 None return who go to her;
none reach the paths of life.

These verses warn against the dangers of temptation and the importance of wisdom. Here temptation is characterized as a woman, warning us that it can lead us away from truth and reality. Again, we are reminded that wisdom can save us from the allure of temptation. We are shown the contrast between godly and ungodly women, illustrating the value of wisdom in our lives. The lesson in this passage encourages us to seek wisdom and avoid the pitfalls of temptation. It is better to have a little with the fear of the Lord than to have a great treasure with trouble.
