The mouth of forbidden women is a deep pit; he with whom the Lord is angry will fall into it.
Your eyes will see strange things, and your heart utter perverse things.
For the lips of a forbidden woman drip honey, and her speech is smoother than oil,

But you say, “Why does he not?” Because the Lord was witness between you and the wife of your youth, to whom you have been faithless, though she is your companion and your wife by covenant.
“For the man who does not love his wife but divorces her, says the Lord, the God of Israel, covers his garment with violence, says the Lord of hosts. So guard yourselves in your spirit, and do not be faithless.”
