⁸ Remove thy way far from her, and come not nigh the door of her house:

⁶ All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the Lord hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.

²⁵ Lust not after her beauty in thine heart; neither let her take thee with her eyelids.

²⁸ But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.

³¹ Look not thou upon the wine when it is red, when it giveth his colour in the cup, when it moveth itself aright.

³² At the last it biteth like a serpent, and stingeth like an adder.

³³ Thine eyes shall behold strange women, and thine heart shall utter perverse things.

²³ He shall die without instruction; and in the greatness of his folly he shall go astray.

¹⁴ Enter not into the path of the wicked, and go not in the way of evil men.

¹⁵ Avoid it, pass not by it, turn from it, and pass away.

¹⁷⁶ I have gone astray like a lost sheep; seek thy servant; for I do not forget thy commandments.
