BrTr Sit not at all with another man's wife, nor sit down with her in thine arms, and spend not thy money with her at the wine; lest thine heart incline unto her, and so through thy desire thou fall into destruction.

WEBBE Don’t dine at all with a woman who has a husband,
⇔ or revel with her at wine,[fn]
⇔ lest perhaps your soul turn away to her,
⇔ and with your spirit you slide into destruction.
