WARNING AGAINST ADULTERY

20 My son, keep your father’s command,

and don’t reject your mother’s teaching.ad

21 Always bind them to your heart;

tie them around your neck.ae

22 When you walk here and there, they will guide you;

when you lie down, they will watch over you;

when you wake up, they will talk to you.

23 For a command is a lamp, teaching is a light,af

and corrective discipline is the way to life.ag

24 They will protect you from an evil woman,E

from the flattering tongue of a wayward woman.ah
