For whyshould you, my son,be exhilaratedwith an adulteressAnd embracethe bosomof a foreigner?
Now KingSolomonlovedmanyforeignwomenalong with the daughterof Pharaoh:Moabite,Ammonite,Edomite,Sidonian,and Hittitewomen,
The mouthof an adulteressis a deeppit;He who is cursedof the LORDwill fallinto it.
Your eyeswill seestrangethingsAnd your mindwill utterperversethings.
For the lipsof an adulteressdriphoneyAnd smootherthanoilis her speech;
To keepyou from the evilwoman,From the smoothtongueof the adulteress.
That they may keepyou from an adulteress,From the foreignerwho flatterswith her words.
"Yet you say,'For whatreason?'Becausethe LORDhas been a witnessbetweenyou and the wifeof your youth,against whomyou have dealttreacherously,though she is your companionand your wifeby covenant.
"For I hatedivorce,"saysthe LORD,the Godof Israel,"and him who covershis garmentwith wrong,"saysthe LORDof hosts."So takeheedto your spirit,that you do not dealtreacherously."
