Kept by they/them

That they may keep thee from the strange woman, from the stranger which flattereth with her words.

Proverbs 7:5

In this verse, they/them refers to wisdom and understanding. The invitation is to let them relate to you as sister and kinswoman. Cultivate a relationship with them, spend time soaking your thoughts in them, that they may keep thee…

Your responsibility is to keep company with they/them (wisdom and understanding).

And the side effect of this is that they/them will keep you from the snares and seduction of that which operates outside of your covenant.

Do your part so that they/them can do theirs.
