Good News Bible

Proverbs 6:30-35 Good News Bible (GNB)

30. People don't despise a thief if he steals food when he is hungry;

31. yet if he is caught, he must pay back seven times more — he must give up everything he has.

32. But a man who commits adultery hasn't any sense. He is just destroying himself.

33. He will be dishonoured and beaten up; he will be permanently disgraced.

34. A husband is never angrier than when he is jealous; his revenge knows no limits.

35. He will not accept any payment; no amount of gifts will satisfy his anger.
