Proverbs 6:24-32
Prov.6.24-Prov.6.32
Explore this passage in the graph24to preserve you from the evil woman,
from the smooth tongue of the adulteress. 25Do not desire her beauty in your heart,
and do not let her capture you with her eyelashes; 26for the price of a prostitute is only a loaf of bread,
but a married woman hunts down a precious life. 27Can a man carry fire next to his chest
and his clothes not be burned? 28Or can one walk on hot coals
and his feet not be scorched? 29So is he who goes in to his neighbor’s wife;
none who touches her will go unpunished. 30People do not despise a thief if he steals
to satisfy his appetite when he is hungry, 31but if he is caught, he will pay sevenfold;
he will give all the goods of his house. 32He who commits adultery lacks sense;
he who does it destroys himself. Read this passage at the publisher: Read in NIV · Read in ESV
