Go far away from her, do not come near the door of her house;

See the chapter Copy

Seated at the door of her house, in the high places of the town,

And let us not be put to the test, but keep us safe from the Evil One.

And have no company with the works of the dark, which give no fruit, but make their true quality clear;
