Proverbs 6:30
Compare all
28 Can one walk on hot coals,
And his feet not be seared?
29 So is he who goes in to his neighbor’s wife;
Whoever touches her shall not be innocent.
30 People do not despise a thief
If he steals to satisfy himself when he is starving.
31 Yet when he is found, ahe must restore sevenfold;
He may have to give up all the substance of his house. 
32 Whoever commits adultery with a woman alacks understanding;
He who does so destroys his own soul. 
33 Wounds and dishonor he will get,
And his reproach will not be wiped away.
