But one day, when he went into the house to do his work and none of the men of the house was there in the house,
But he refused and said to his master's wife, “Lo, having me my master has no concern about anything in the house, and he has put everything that he has in my hand;

You will be saved from the loose woman, from the adventuress with her smooth words,

Keep your way far from her, and do not go near the door of her house;
She seizes him and kisses him, and with impudent face she says to him:
to preserve you from the loose woman, from the adventuress with her smooth words.

“Whoever is simple, let him turn in here!” And to him who is without sense she says,
Shun immorality. Every other sin which a man commits is outside the body; but the immoral man sins against his own body.
So I would have younger widows marry, bear children, rule their households, and give the enemy no occasion to revile us.
So shun youthful passions and aim at righteousness, faith, love, and peace, along with those who call upon the Lord from a pure heart.
Beloved, I beseech you as aliens and exiles to abstain from the passions of the flesh that wage war against your soul.
