24 To keep you from the evil woman, from the flattery of the tongue of a strange woman.

25 Do not lust after her beauty in your heart; neither let her snare you with her eyes, nor let her captivate you with her eyelids.

26 For the appearance of a harlot is tempting like a loaf of bread; and the adulteress hunts for the precious life.

27 Can a man take fire in his bosom, and his clothes not be burned?

28 Can one walk upon hot coals, and his feet not be burned?

29 So is he who goes in to his neighbor's wife and touches her; he shall not be innocent.
