Proverbs 6:30-34 Common English Bible (CEB)

30. People don’t despise a thief if he stealsto fill his starving stomach.

31. But if he is caught, he must pay sevenfold;he must give all the riches of his house.

32. He who commits adultery is senseless.Doing so, he destroys himself.

33. He is wounded and disgraced.His shame will never be wiped away.

34. Jealousy makes a man rage;he’ll show no mercy on his day of revenge.
