27 Can a man carry (A)fire next to his (B)chest
    and his clothes not be burned?
28 Or can one (C)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 (D)will go unpunished.
30 People do not despise a thief if he steals
    to (E)satisfy his appetite when he is hungry,
31 but (F)if he is caught, he will pay (G)sevenfold;
    he will give all the goods of his house.
32 He who commits adultery lacks sense;
    he who does it destroys himself.
33 He will get wounds and dishonor,
    and his disgrace will not be wiped away.
34 For (H)jealousy makes a man furious,
    and he will not spare when (I)he takes revenge.
35 He will accept no compensation;
    he will refuse though you multiply gifts.
