²⁰My son, keep your father’s commandment, ²¹Bind them always upon your heart; ²²When you walk, they will guide you; ²³For this commandment is a lamp, this teaching is a light, ²⁴to keep you from the evil woman, ²⁵Do not lust in your heart for her beauty ²⁶For the levy of the prostitute is poverty, ²⁷Can a man embrace fire ²⁸Can a man walk on hot coals ²⁹So is he who sleeps with another man’s wife; ³⁰Men do not despise the thief ³¹Yet if caught, he must pay sevenfold; ³²He who commits adultery lacks judgment; ³³Wounds and dishonor will befall him, ³⁴For jealousy enrages a husband, ³⁵He will not be appeased by any ransom,
