Proverbs 6:23-26
23For 1the commandment is a lamp and the 2teaching is light; And reproofs for discipline are the way of life24To 3keep you from the evil woman, From the smooth tongue of the 4adulteress.255Do not desire her beauty in your heart, Nor let her capture you with her 6eyelids.26For 7on account of a harlot one is reduced to a loaf of bread, And 8an adulteress 9hunts for the precious life.
