Proverbs 6:32–35

He who commits adultery lacks sense;

he who does it destroys himself.

He will get wounds and dishonor,

and his disgrace will not be wiped away.

For jealousy makes a man furious,

and he will not spare when he takes revenge.

He will accept no compensation;

he will refuse though you multiply gifts.

But a man who commits adultery has no sense;

whoever does so destroys himself.

Blows and disgrace are his lot,

and his shame will never be wiped away.

For jealousy arouses a husband’s fury,

and he will show no mercy when he takes revenge.

He will not accept any compensation;

he will refuse a bribe, however great it is.

But the man who commits adultery is an utter fool,

for he destroys himself.

He will be wounded and disgraced.

His shame will never be erased.

For the woman’s jealous husband will be furious,

and he will show no mercy when he takes revenge.

He will accept no compensation,

nor be satisfied with a payoff of any size.

He who commits adultery with a woman lacks sense,

he destroys himself who does it.

A wound and dishonor he will find,

and his disgrace will not be wiped out.

For jealousy is the fury of a husband,

and he will not show restraint on the day of revenge.

He will not accept any compensation,

and he will not be willing, though the bribe is large.

But whoso committeth adultery with a woman lacketh understanding:

He that doeth it destroyeth his own soul.

A wound and dishonour shall he get;

And his reproach shall not be wiped away.

For jealousy is the rage of a man:

Therefore he will not spare in the day of vengeance.

He will not regard any ransom;

Neither will he rest content, though thou givest many gifts.
