May your heart not turn aside onto her paths
Here "ways" means the paths that a person chooses to walk on. It represents the person's behavior, the things that he decides to do in life. Alternate translation: "Make your heart stay far away from the ways of the adulterous woman" or "Do not let your heart want to do the things that the adulterous woman does" (See: rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor)
your heart
Here "heart" represents a person, emphasizing his desires. Alternate translation: "you" (See: rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-synecdoche)
do not be led astray onto her paths
This means the same as the sentence before it. It strengthens the first warning. Alternate translation: "do not leave the right path in order to go on her paths" (See: rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-parallelism)
