24 to protect you from the evil woman, from the words of the seductive woman. 25 Do not focus on her beauty in your mind, nor allow her to take you prisoner with her flirting eyes, 26 because the price of a whore is a loaf of bread, and an adulterous woman stalks a man's precious life. 27 Can a man scoop fire into his bosom without burning his clothes? 28 Can a man walk on hot coals without scorching his feet? 29 So also is it with someone who has sex with his neighbor's wife; anyone touching her will not remain unpunished.
