Proverbs 6:25-27
New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
25 Do not desire her beauty in your heart,
and do not let her capture you with her eyelashes;
26 for a prostitute’s fee is only a loaf of bread,[a]
but the wife of another stalks a man’s very life.
27 Can fire be carried in the bosom
without burning one’s clothes?
