25 Do not lust in your heart after her beauty

or let her captivate you with her eyes.

26 For a prostitute can be had for a loaf of bread,

but another man’s wife preys on your very life.

25 Lust not after her beauty in thine heart;

Neither let her take thee with her eyelids.

26 For by means of a whorish woman a man is brought to a piece of bread:

And the adulteress will hunt for the precious life.

25 Don’t lust for her beauty.

Don’t let her coy glances seduce you.

26 For a prostitute will bring you to poverty,

but sleeping with another man’s wife will cost you your life.

25 Do not lust after her beauty in your heart,

Nor let her allure you with her eyelids.

26 For by means of a harlot

A man is reduced to a crust of bread;

And an adulteress will prey upon his precious life.

25 Don’t desire her because she is beautiful.

Don’t let her capture you by the way she looks at you.

26 A prostitute will treat you like a loaf of bread,

and a woman who takes part in adultery may cost you your life.

25 Lust not after her beauty in thy heart;

Neither let her take thee with her eyelids.

26 For on account of a harlot a man is brought to a piece of bread;

And the adulteress hunteth for the precious life.

25 Lust not after her beauty in thy heart, neither let her take thee with her eyelids; 26 for by means of a whorish woman a man is brought to a loaf of bread, and another’s wife doth hunt for the precious soul.

25 Do not desire her beauty in your heart. 

Do not let her catch you with her eyes. 

26 A prostitute’s price is ⸤only⸥ a loaf of bread, 

but a married woman hunts for ⸤your⸥ life itself. 

25 Don’t lust in your heart for her beauty

or let her captivate you with her eyelashes.

26 For a prostitute’s fee is only a loaf of bread,

but an adulteress goes after a precious life.

25 Do not desire her beauty in your heart,

and do not let her capture you with her eyelashes;

26 for a prostitute’s fee is only a loaf of bread,

but the wife of another stalks a man’s very life.

25 Do not desire her beauty in your heart;

may she not capture you with her eyelashes.

26 For the price of a woman, a prostitute, is the price of a loaf of bread,

but the woman belonging to a man hunts precious life.

25 Don’t hunger in your heart after her beauty.

Don’t let her eyes capture you.

26 A prostitute leaves you with only a loaf of bread.

Another man’s wife hunts your very life.

25 Do not desire her beauty in your heart,

Nor let her capture you with her eyelids.

26 For on account of a harlot one is reduced to a loaf of bread,

And an adulteress hunts for the precious life.
