26 For the levy of the prostitute is poverty, and the adulteress preys upon your very life.
27 Can a man embrace fire and his clothes not be burned?
28 Can a man walk on hot coals without scorching his feet?
29 So is he who sleeps with another man’s wife; no one who touches her will go unpunished.
30 Men do not despise the thief if he steals to satisfy his hunger.
31 Yet if caught, he must pay sevenfold; he must give up all the wealth of his house.
32 He who commits adultery lacks judgment; whoever does so destroys himself.
