Proverbs

²⁹So he who cohabits with his neighbor's wife [will be tortured with evil consequences and just retribution]; he who touches her shall not be innocent or go unpunished. ³⁰Men do not despise a thief if he steals to satisfy himself when he is hungry; ³¹But if he is found out, he must restore seven times [what he stole]; he must give the whole substance of his house [if necessary–to meet his fine]. ³²But whoever commits adultery with a woman lacks heart and understanding (moral principle and prudence); he who does it is destroying his own life. ³³Wounds and disgrace will he get, and his reproach will not be wiped away. ³⁴For jealousy makes [the wronged] man furious; therefore he will not spare in the day of vengeance [upon the detected one]. ³⁵He will not consider any ransom [offered to buy him off from demanding full punishment]; neither will he be satisfied, though you offer him many gifts and bribes.
