Context of Proverbs 6:33
31Yet if he is caught, he must repay sevenfold, giving up all the wealth of his house. 32He who commits adultery with a woman lacks sense. Whoever does so destroys himself. He will find disease and disgrace. His shame will never be wiped away. 34For jealousy enrages a man and he will show no mercy in the day of revenge. 35He will not accept any compensation, he will not consent, even if your bribe is great.
