That thou mayst be delivered from the evil way, and from the man that speaketh perverse things:

If you can take a closer look at Proverbs chapter 2 from verse 11 to 13, and take a bible study you will understand verse 11 better which talks more about:

(12) Froward things.--(Heb., tahp-khoth), i.e., misrepresentations, distortions of the truth.

  • Ellicott's Commentary

Verse 12. - To deliver thee from the way of the evil man. The first special advantage resulting from the protecting guardianship of discretion and understanding. From the way of the evil man; properly, from an evil way

  • Pulpit commentary

…11 Discretion will watch over you, and understanding will guard you, 12 to deliver you from the way of evil, from the man who speaks perversity, 13 from those who leave the straight paths to walk in the ways of darkness,…

The moral lesson of this Bible verse is:

Wisdom will protect you from evil schemes and from those liars.

The lesson in the Bible verse has been obtained from: Treasury Of Scripture
