Proverbs 6:25, 29-33

Proverbs 6:25 NET

Do not lust in your heart for her beauty, and do not let her captivate you with her alluring eyes

Proverbs 6:29-33 NET

So it is with the one who has sex with his neighbor’s wife; no one who touches her will escape punishment. People do not despise a thief when he steals to fulfill his need when he is hungry. Yet if he is caught he must repay seven times over, he might even have to give all the wealth of his house. A man who commits adultery with a woman lacks wisdom, whoever does it destroys his own life. He will be beaten and despised, and his reproach will not be wiped away
