¹⁰ When wisdome entreth into thine heart, and thy soule deliteth in knowledge: ¹¹ Then shall counsayle preserue thee, and vnderstandyng shall kepe thee, ¹² That thou mayest be deliuered from the euyll way, and from the man that speaketh frowarde thynges: ¹³ From such as leaue the wayes of righteousnesse, to walke in the wayes of darknesse: ¹⁴ Which reioyce in doyng naught, and delite in the wickednesse of the euyll: ¹⁵ Whose wayes are croked, and they frowarde in their pathes. ¹⁶ That thou mayest be deliuered also from the straunge woman, and from her that is not thine owne, which geueth sweete wordes, ¹⁷ Forsaketh the husbande of her youth, & forgetteth the couenaunt of her God. ¹⁸ For her house is enclined vnto death, and her pathes vnto hell. ¹⁹ All they that go in vnto her, come not agayne, neither take they holde of the way of lyfe.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

That thou mayest walk in the way of good [men],.... Who are not so by nature, but made so by the grace of God; such as the saints, prophets, and patriarchs of old; and who walked in the way of righteousness, holiness, and truth; being directed therein by the Spirit and word of God: now the use and profit of wisdom's instructions, or of the Gospel of Christ, and the doctrines of it, and a spiritual understanding of them, are not only to deliver men from the wicked man and the naughty woman, but also to influence and engage them to follow the examples of good men, and to walk in the same good old paths as they have done, Hebrews 6:12;

and keep the paths of the righteous; not only observe them and walk in them, but continue therein, even in the paths of faith and holiness; for righteous men, such as are made righteous by the righteousness of Christ, and are anew created unto righteousness and true holiness, and in consequence thereof live righteously; these walk by faith on Christ, and as becomes his Gospel; and in all the ordinances of it, and in all the duties of religion; and the Gospel teaches all those that receive and profess it to do the same.
