21. Bind them on your heart always; Tie them around your neck.
22. When you are walking about, it leads you; When you lie down, it guards you. And when you have woken up, It talks to you.
23. For the command is a lamp, And the Torah a light, And reproofs of discipline a way of life,
24. To guard you against an evil woman, From the flattering tongue of a strange woman.
25. Do not desire her prettiness in your heart, Neither let her captivate you with her eyelids.
26. For because of a whore One is brought to a crust of bread. And an adulteress hunts a precious life.
27. Would a man take fire to his bosom, And his garments not be burned?
28. Would a man walk on hot coals, And his feet not be scorched?
29. So is he who goes in to his neighbour’s wife; None who touches her goes unpunished.
