In context
27 Can a man snatch up fire in his bosom, and, his clothes, not be burned?
28 Or can a man walk upon hot coals, and, his feet, not be burned?
29 So, he that goeth in unto his neighbour’s wife, no man shall be guiltless who toucheth her!
30 Men despise not a thief, when he stealeth, to satisfy his appetite, because he is famished;
31 Yet, if found, he must pay back sevenfold, All the substance of his house, must he give:
32 He that committeth adultery with a woman, lacketh sense, A destroyer of his own life, is he that doeth it;
33 Smiting and shame, shall he find, and, his reproach, shall not be wiped out;
