None that go unto her return again, neither take they hold of the paths of life.

She is a tree of life to them that lay hold upon her: and happy is everyone that retains her.

Take fast hold of instruction; let her not go: keep her; for she is your life.

Her feet go down to death; her steps take hold on sheol.

He that is void of wisdom despises his neighbor: but a man of understanding holds his peace.

Even a fool, when he holds his peace, is counted wise: and he that shuts his lips is esteemed a man of understanding.

Take his garment who is surety for a stranger: and hold it as a pledge of him for an immoral woman.

Deliver those that are drawn toward death, hold back those that are stumbling to the slaughter;

Take his garment who is surety for a stranger, and hold it as a pledge of him for an immoral woman.

The spider takes hold with its hands, and is in kings' palaces.

She lays her hands to the distaff, and her hands hold the spindle.
