32 A man who commits adultery with a woman lacks wisdom, whoever does it destroys his own life.

33 He will be beaten and despised, and his reproach will not be wiped away;

34 for jealousy kindles a husband's rage, and he will not show mercy when he takes revenge.

35 He will not consider any compensation; he will not be willing, even if you multiply the compensation.
