Proverbs 6:24-29

New Living Translation NLT

24 It will keep you from the immoral woman, from the smooth tongue of a promiscuous woman.

25 Don’t lust for her beauty. Don’t let her coy glances seduce you.

26 For a prostitute will bring you to poverty, but sleeping with another man’s wife will cost you your life.

27 Can a man scoop a flame into his lap and not have his clothes catch on fire?

28 Can he walk on hot coals and not blister his feet?

29 So it is with the man who sleeps with another man’s wife. He who embraces her will not go unpunished.

New International Version NIV

24 keeping you from your neighbor’s wife, from the smooth talk of a wayward woman.

25 Do not lust in your heart after her beauty or let her captivate you with her eyes.

26 For a prostitute can be had for a loaf of bread, but another man’s wife preys on your very life.

27 Can a man scoop fire into his lap without his clothes being burned?

28 Can a man walk on hot coals without his feet being scorched?

29 So is he who sleeps with another man’s wife; no one who touches her will go unpunished.
