Verse
Proverbs - ch 6 v 21 - 35
- Bind them continually on your heart. Tie them around your neck.
- When you walk, it will lead you. When you sleep, it will watch over you. When you awake, it will talk with you.
- For the commandment is a lamp, and the law is light. Reproofs of instruction are the way of life,
- to keep you from the immoral woman, from the flattery of the wayward wife's tongue.
- Don't lust after her beauty in your heart, neither let her captivate you with her eyelids.
- For a prostitute reduces you to a piece of bread. The adulteress hunts for your precious life.
- Can a man scoop fire into his lap, and his clothes not be burned?
- Or can one walk on hot coals, and his feet not be scorched?
- So is he who goes in to his neighbor's wife. Whoever touches her will not be unpunished.
- Men don't despise a thief, if he steals to satisfy himself when he is hungry:
- but if he is found, he shall restore seven times. He shall give all the wealth of his house.
- He who commits adultery with a woman is void of understanding. He who does it destroys his own soul.
- He will get wounds and dishonor. His reproach will not be wiped away.
- For jealousy arouses the fury of the husband. He won't spare in the day of vengeance.
- He won't regard any ransom, neither will he rest content, though you give many gifts.
