Proverbs 6:26-28

Modern English Version

²⁶ For by means of a harlot a man is reduced to a piece of bread,
    and the adulteress will prey upon his precious life.
²⁷ Can a man take fire in his bosom,
    and his clothes not be burned?
²⁸ Can one walk upon hot coals,
    and his feet not be burned?
