30 They do not despise the thief, When he stealeth to fill his soul when he is hungry, People do not despise a thief if he steals to satisfy his appetite when he is hungry, People do not despise a thief if he steals to satisfy his hunger when he is starving.
31 And being found he repayeth sevenfold, All the substance of his house he giveth. but if he is caught, he will pay sevenfold; he will give all the goods of his house. Yet if he is caught, he must pay sevenfold, though it costs him all the wealth of his house.
32 He who committeth adultery with a woman lacketh heart, He is destroying his soul who doth it. He who commits adultery lacks sense; he who does it destroys himself. But a man who commits adultery has no sense; whoever does so destroys himself.
33 A stroke and shame he doth find, And his reproach is not wiped away, He will get wounds and dishonor, and his disgrace will not be wiped away. Blows and disgrace are his lot, and his shame will never be wiped away.
34 For jealousy is the fury of a man, And he doth not spare in a day of vengeance. For jealousy makes a man furious, and he will not spare when he takes revenge. For jealousy arouses a husband’s fury, and he will show no mercy when he takes revenge.
35 He accepteth not the appearance of any atonement, Yea, he doth not consent, Though thou dost multiply bribes! He will accept no compensation; he will refuse though you multiply gifts. He will not accept any compensation; he will refuse a bribe, however great it is.
