Context of Proverbs 6:33
31But if he be found, he shall restore sevenfold; he shall give all the substance of his house. 32He that committeth adultery with a woman is void of understanding: he doeth it that would destroy his own soul. Wounds and dishonour 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 givest many gifts.
