“Did not Shelomoh sovereign of Yisra’ĕ

Do not give your strength to women, Nor your ways to wiping away sovereigns.

Lest strangers be filled with your strength, And your labours go to the house of a foreigner.

For because of a whore One is brought to a crust of bread. And an adulteress hunts a precious life.
