Proverbs 6:24 - The Message

They’ll protect you from wanton women,
   from the seductive talk of some temptress.
Don’t lustfully fantasize on her beauty,
   nor be taken in by her bedroom eyes.
You can buy an hour with a whore for a loaf of bread,
   but a wanton woman may well eat you alive.
Can you build a fire in your lap
   and not burn your pants?
Can you walk barefoot on hot coals
   and not get blisters?
It’s the same when you have sex with your neighbor’s wife:
   Touch her and you’ll pay for it. No excuses.
Hunger is no excuse
   for a thief to steal;
When he’s caught he has to pay it back,
   even if he has to put his whole house in hock.
Adultery is a brainless act,
   soul-destroying, self-destructive;
Expect a bloody nose, a black eye,
   and a reputation ruined for good.
For jealousy detonates rage in a cheated husband;
   wild for revenge, he won’t make allowances.
Nothing you say or pay will make it all right;
   neither bribes nor reason will satisfy him.
