To keep thee from the wicked woman, from the flattery of the tongue of her that is a stranger.

Can a man snatch up fire in his bosom, and, his clothes, not be burned? Or can a man walk upon hot coals, and, his feet, not be burned? So, he that goeth in unto his neighbour's wife, no man shall be guiltless who toucheth her! Men despise not a thief, when he stealeth, to satisfy his appetite, because he is famished; Yet, if found, he must pay back sevenfold, All the substance of his house, must he give: He that committeth adultery with a woman, lacketh sense, A destroyer of his own life, is he that doeth it; Smiting and shame, shall he find, and, his reproach, shall not be wiped out; For, jealousy, is the rage of a man, nor will he spare, in the day of avenging;

Three, things there are, too difficult for me, yea, four, which I do not understand: The way of an eagle in the heavens, the way of a serpent on the rock, - the way of a ship in the heart of the sea, and the way of a man with a maid. So, is the way of a woman committing adultery, - she eateth, and wipeth her mouth, and saith, I have done no iniquity!

Inasmuch as, having come to know God, not, as God, did they glorify him, or give him thanks, but were made fruitless in their reasonings, and darkened was their undiscerning heart, Professing to be wise, they were made foolish, And, exchanged the glory of the incorruptible God, for the likeness of an image of a corruptible man, and of birds and fourfooted beasts and reptiles:
The fashioners of an image - all of them, are emptiness, And, the things they delight in, cannot profit, - And, their, witnesses, they, neither see nor know, That they may be ashamed. Who hath fashioned a GOD, Oran image, hath molten? It cannot profit! Lo! all his partners, turn pale, Even, the artificers themselves, are of the sons of earth, - Let them gather themselves together - all of them.

They have not taken note, neither can they perceive, - He hath besmeared - past seeing - their eyes, Past understanding, their hearts; And no one reflecteth - There is neither knowledge nor discernment - to say, Half thereof, have I burned up in the fire Moreover also I have baked, on the coals thereof, breed, I roasted flesh, and have been eating, - And of the remainder thereof, an abomination, shall I make? And, to a log of wood, shall I pay adoration?

Wherefore, then, shouldst thou stray, my son, with a strange woman? or embrace the bosom of a woman unknown?
