Proverbs 6:23-26

23For 1the commandment is a lamp and the 2teaching is light; And rebukes for discipline are the way of life24To 3keep you from the evil woman, From the smooth tongue of the foreign woman.25 4Do not desire her beauty in your heart, Nor let her capture you with her 5eyelids.26For 6the price of a prostitute reduces one to a loaf of bread, And 7an adulteress 8hunts for a precious life.
