23For the commandement is a lanterne, and instruction a light: and corrections for instruction are the way of life,
24To keepe thee from the wicked woman, and from ye flatterie of ye tongue of a strange woman.
25Desire not her beautie in thine heart, neither let her take thee with her eye lids.
26For because of the whorish woman a man is brought to a morsell of bread, and a woman wil hunt for the precious life of a man.
27Can a man take fire in his bosome, and his clothes not be burnt?
28Or can a man go vpon coales, and his feete not be burnt?
29So he that goeth in to his neighbours wife, shall not be innocent, whosoeuer toucheth her.
30Men do not despise a thiefe, when he stealeth, to satisfie his soule, because he is hungrie.
31But if he be founde, he shall restore seuen folde, or he shall giue all the substance of his house.
32But he that committeth adulterie with a woman, he is destitute of vnderstanding: he that doeth it, destroyeth his owne soule.
33He shall finde a wounde and dishonour, and his reproch shall neuer be put away.
34For ielousie is the rage of a man: therefore he will not spare in the day of vengeance.
35He cannot beare the sight of any raunsome: neither will he consent, though thou augment the giftes.
