Proverbs 6:27-33

27Can anyone take fire in his lap And his clothes not be burned?28Or can a person walk on hot coals And his feet not be scorched?29So is the one who 1goes in to his neighbor’s wife; Whoever touches her 2will not 3go unpunished.30People do not despise a thief if he steals To 4satisfy 5himself when he is hungry;31But when he is found, he must 6repay seven times as much; He must give up all the property of his house.32One who commits adultery with a woman is 7lacking 8sense; He who would 9destroy 10himself commits it.33He will find wounds and disgrace, And his shame will not be removed.
