25. Lust not after her beauty in thine lev; neither let her allure thee with her eyelids.
26. For by means of an isha zonah a man is reduced to a kikar lechem; and [another] man's wife will prey on the nefesh yekara (precious soul).
27. Can a man take eish in his kheyk, and his clothes not be burned?
28. Can one walk upon hot coals, and his regel not be burned?
29. So is he that goeth into his eshet re'a; whosoever toucheth her shall not go unpunished.
30. Men do not despise a ganav if he steal to satisfy his nefesh when he is starving;
31. But if he be found out, he shall restore sevenfold; he shall give hon (substance, wealth) of his bais;
32. But the no'ef (one who committeth adultery) with an isha lacketh lev [of understanding]; he that doeth it destroyeth his own nefesh.
33. A nega [see Isaiah 53:8 for Moshiach's nega taken for unfaithful Israel] and dishonor shall he get; and his cherpah (reproach) shall not be wiped away.
34. For kina (jealousy) is the chamat gever (husband's rage); therefore he will not spare in the yom nakam (day of vengeance).
