Punishments for Sexual Immorality

10 “If a ^bman commits adultery with the wife of ^{▼▼Hebrew repeats if a man commits adultery with the wife of} his neighbor, both the adulterer and the adulteress shall surely be put to death.

2 Samuel 11:4-5

4 So David sent messengers and took her, and she came to him, and he lay with her. ( ^dNow she had been purifying herself from her uncleanness.) Then she returned to her house. 5 And the woman conceived, and she sent and told David, “I am pregnant.”

2 Samuel 11:27

27 And when the mourning was over, David sent and brought her to his house, and ^eshe became his wife and bore him a son. But the thing that David had done displeased the Lord.

Proverbs 2:15-18

15 men whose ^fpaths are crooked,
^gand who are ^hdevious in their ways.
16 So ⁱyou will be delivered from the forbidden ^{▼▼Hebrew strange} woman,
from ^kthe adulteress ^{▼▼Hebrew foreign woman} with ^mher smooth words,
17 who forsakes ⁿthe companion of her youth
and forgets ^othe covenant of her God;
18 ^pfor her house sinks down to death,
and her paths to the departed; ^{▼▼Hebrew to the Rephaim}

Proverbs 6:24-35

24 to preserve you from the evil woman, ^{▼▼Revocalization (compare Septuagint) yields from the wife of a neighbor}
from the smooth tongue of ^sthe adulteress. ^{▼▼Hebrew the foreign woman}
25 ^uDo not desire her beauty in your heart,
and do not let her capture you with her ^veyelashes;
26 for ^wthe price of a prostitute is only ^xa 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} ^aahunts down a precious life.
27 Can a man carry ^abfire next to his ^acchest
and his clothes not be burned?
28 Or can one ^adwalk on hot coals
and his feet not be scorched?
29 So is he who goes in to his neighbor’s wife;
none who touches her ^aewill go unpunished.
30 People do not despise a thief if he steals
to ^afsatisfy his appetite when he is hungry,
31 but ^agif he is caught, he will pay ^ahsevenfold;
he will give all the goods of his house.
32 He who commits adultery lacks sense;
he who does it destroys himself.
33 He will get wounds and dishonor,
and his disgrace will not be wiped away.
34 For ^aijealousy makes a man furious,
and he will not spare when ^ajhe takes revenge.
35 He will accept no compensation;
he will refuse though you multiply gifts.

Proverbs 7:18-27

18 Come, let us take our fill of love till morning;
let us delight ourselves with love.
19 For ^akmy husband is not at home;
he has gone on a long journey;
20 he took a bag of money with him;
at full moon he will come home.”
21 With much seductive speech she persuades him;
with ^alher smooth talk she compels him.
22 All at once he follows her,
as an ox goes to the slaughter,
or as a stag is caught fast ^{▼▼Probable reading (compare Septuagint, Vulgate, Syriac); Hebrew as an anklet for the discipline of a fool}
23 till an arrow pierces its liver;
as ^ana bird rushes into a snare;
he does not know that it will cost him his life.
24 And ^aonow, O sons, listen to me,
and be attentive to the words of my mouth.
25 Let not your heart turn aside to her ways;
do not stray into her paths,
26 for many a victim has she laid low,
and all her slain are ^apa mighty throng.
27 Her house is ^aqthe way to Sheol,
going down to the chambers of death.
