For because of a whore One is brought to a crust of bread. And an adulteress hunts a precious life.
He who commits adultery with a woman lacks heart; He who does it destroys his own life.

But he does not know that the dead are there, Her guests are in the depths of She’ol.

For even man does not know his time. Like fish taken in an evil net, and like birds caught in a snare, so the sons of men are snared in an evil time, when it comes down on them suddenly.
