Proverbs 6:20-35

My child, keep [the] commandment of your father, and do not disregard [the] instruction of your mother. Bind them on your heart continually; tie them upon your neck. {When you walk}, she will lead you, {When you lie down}, she will watch over you, and [when] you awake, she will converse [with] you.read more.
For [like] a lamp [is] a commandment, and instruction [is] light, and the way of life [is the] reproof of discipline, [in order] to preserve you from an evil woman, from the smoothness of [the] tongue of {an adulteress}. Do not desire her beauty in your heart; may she not capture you with her eyelashes. For [the] price of a woman, a prostitute, [is the] price of a loaf of bread, but the {woman belonging to a man} hunts precious life. Can a man carry fire in his lap, and his clothes not burn? If a man walks upon the hot coals, will his feet not be burned? Thus, he who goes to the wife of his neighbor, any who touches her shall not go unpunished. [People] do not despise a thief when he steals to fill himself when he is hungry. But [if] he is found, he will pay sevenfold, every possession of his house he shall give. He who commits adultery [with] a woman lacks {sense}, he destroys himself who does it. A wound and dishonor he will find, and his disgrace will not be wiped out. For jealousy [is the] fury of a husband, and he will not show restraint on the day of revenge. He will not accept {any compensation}, and he will not be willing, though the bribe is large.
