Proverbs 6:26-31
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 6
26
For the price of a prostitute
reduces one
to a loaf of bread,
And an adulteress hunts for a precious life.
27
Can anyone take fire in his lap
And his clothes not be burned?
28
Or can a person walk on hot coals
And his feet not be scorched?
29
So is the one who goes in to his neighbor’s wife;
Whoever touches her will not go unpunished.
30
People
do not despise a thief if he steals
To satisfy himself when he is hungry;
31
But when he is found, he must repay seven times
as much;
He must give up all the property of his house.
King James Version
Chapter 6
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.
27
Can a man take fire in his bosom, and his clothes not be burned?
28
Can one go upon hot coals, and his feet not be burned?
29
So he that goeth in to his neighbour's wife; whosoever toucheth her shall not be innocent.
30
Men do not despise a thief, if he steal to satisfy his soul when he is hungry;
31
But if he be found, he shall restore sevenfold; he shall give all the substance of his house.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 6
26
For a prostitute’s fee is only a loaf of bread,
but the wife of another man goes after a precious life.
27
Can a man embrace fire
and his clothes not be burned?
28
Can a man walk on burning coals
without scorching his feet?
29
So it is with the one who sleeps with
another man’s wife;
no one who touches her will go unpunished.
30
People don’t despise the thief if he steals
to satisfy himself when he is hungry.
31
Still, if caught, he must pay seven times as much;
he must give up all the wealth in his house.
New Living Translation
Chapter 6
26
For a prostitute will bring you to poverty,
but sleeping with another man’s wife will cost you your life.
27
Can a man scoop a flame into his lap
and not have his clothes catch on fire?
28
Can he walk on hot coals
and not blister his feet?
29
So it is with the man who sleeps with another man’s wife.
He who embraces her will not go unpunished.
30
Excuses might be found for a thief
who steals because he is starving.
31
But if he is caught, he must pay back seven times what he stole,
even if he has to sell everything in his house.
English Standard Version
Chapter 6
26
for the price of a prostitute is only a loaf of bread,
but a married woman hunts down a precious life.
27
Can a man carry fire next to his chest
and his clothes not be burned?
28
Or can one walk on hot coals
and his feet not be scorched?
29
So is he who goes in to his neighbor 's wife;
none who touches her will go unpunished.
30
People do not despise a thief if he steals
to satisfy his appetite when he is hungry,
31
but if he is caught, he will pay sevenfold;
he will give all the goods of his house.
New International Version
Chapter 6
26
For a prostitute can be had for a loaf of bread,
but another man’s wife preys on your very life.
27
Can a man scoop fire into his lap
without his clothes being burned?
28
Can a man walk on hot coals
without his feet being scorched?
29
So is he who sleeps with another man’s wife;
no one who touches her will go unpunished.
30
People do not despise a thief if he steals
to satisfy his hunger when he is starving.
31
Yet if he is caught, he must pay sevenfold,
though it costs him all the wealth of his house.
New King James Version
Chapter 6
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.
27
Can a man take fire to his bosom,
And his clothes not be burned?
28
Can one walk on hot coals,
And his feet not be seared?
29
So
is
he who goes in to his neighbor’s wife;
Whoever touches her shall not be innocent.
30
People
do not despise a thief
If he steals to satisfy himself when he is starving.
31
Yet
when
he is found, he must restore sevenfold;
He may have to give up all the substance of his house.
