Context of Proverbs 6:33

31and if he be found, he shall restore sevenfold; he shall give all the substance of his house. 32Whoso committeth adultery with a woman is void of understanding: he that doeth it destroyeth his own soul. A wound and contempt shall he get; and his reproach shall not be wiped away. 34For jealousy is the rage of a man, and he will not spare in the day of vengeance; 35he will not regard any ransom, neither will he rest content though thou multipliest [thy] gifts.
