Proverbs 2:10-22

The chiastic structure of Proverbs 2:10-22

2:10 for wisdom will come into your heart, and knowledge will be pleasant to your soul; 11 discretion will watch over you; understanding will guard you;
	12 delivering you from the way of evil, from men of perverted speech, 13 who forsake the paths of uprightness to walk in the ways of darkness,
		14 who rejoice in doing evil and delight in the perverseness of evil; 15 men whose paths are crooked, and who are devious in their ways.
			16 You will be saved from the loose woman, from the adventuress with her smooth words,
			17 who forsakes the companion of her youth and forgets the covenant of her God;
		18 for her house sinks down to death, and her paths to the shades; 19 none who go to her come back nor do they regain the paths of life.
	20 So you will walk in the way of good men and keep to the paths of the righteous.
21 For the upright will inhabit the land, and men of integrity will remain in it; 22 but the wicked will be cut off from the land, and the treacherous will be rooted out of it.
