Proverbs 6:25-29
25 aDo not desire her beauty in your heart,and do not let her capture you with her beyelashes;
26for cthe price of a prostitute is only da loaf of bread, ▼
▼Or (compare Septuagint, Syriac, Vulgate) for a prostitute leaves a man with nothing but a loaf of bread
but a married woman ▼
▼Hebrew a man’s wife
ghunts down a precious life.27Can a man carry hfire next to his ichest
and his clothes not be burned?
28Or can one jwalk on hot coals
and his feet not be scorched?
29So is he who goes in to his neighbor’s wife;
none who touches her kwill go unpunished.
