Proverbs 6:29-35 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

29. So he that goeth in to his neighbour's wife, shall not be clean when he shall touch her.

30. The fault is not so great when a man hath stolen: for he stealeth to fill his hungry soul:

31. And if he be taken he shall restore sevenfold, and shall give up all the substance of his house.

32. But he that is an adulterer, for the folly of his heart shall destroy his own soul:

33. He gathereth to himself shame and dishonour, and his reproach shall not be blotted out:

34. Because the jealousy and rage of the husband will not spare in the day of revenge,

35. Nor will he yield to any man's prayers, nor will he accept for satisfaction ever so many gifts.
