Proverbs 6:24-29 (Young's Literal Translation)
View In My Bible
24
To preserve thee from an evil woman, From the flattery of the tongue of a strange woman.
25
Desire not her beauty in thy heart, And let her not take thee with her eyelids.
26
For a harlot consumeth unto a cake of bread, And an adulteress the precious soul hunteth.
27
Doth a man take fire into his bosom, And are his garments not burnt?
28
Doth a man walk on the hot coals, And are his feet not scorched?
29
So [is] he who hath gone in unto the wife of his neighbour, None who doth touch her is innocent.
