Proverbs 6:24
World English Bible
Previous Chapter Previous Verse Full Chapter Next Verse Next Chapter
21 Bind them continually on your heart. Tie them around your neck.
22 When you walk, it will lead you. When you sleep, it will watch over you. When you awake, it will talk with you.
23 For the commandment is a lamp, And the law is light. Reproofs of instruction are the way of life,
24 To keep you from the immoral woman, From the flattery of the wayward wife`s tongue.
25 Don`t lust after her beauty in your heart, Neither let her captivate you with her eyelids.
26 For a prostitute reduces you to a piece of bread. The adulteress hunts for your precious life.
27 Can a man scoop fire into his lap, And his clothes not be burned?
