Adultery

You shall not commit adultery.


- Exodus 20:14 ESV




He who commits adultery lacks sense; he who does it destroys himself.


- Proverbs 6:32 ESV




18 And a ruler asked him, "Good Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?" 19And Jesus said to him, "Why do you call me good? No one is good except God alone. 20You know the commandments: 'Do not commit adultery, Do not murder, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Honor your father and mother.'"


- Luke 18:18-20 ESV




27 "You have heard that it was said, 'You shall not commit adultery.' 28But I say to you that everyone who looks at a woman with lustful intent has already committed adultery with her in his heart.


- Matthew 5:27-28 ESV




18Let your fountain be blessed,
   and rejoice in the wife of your youth,
19 a lovely deer, a graceful doe.
Let her breasts fill you at all times with delight;
   be intoxicated always in her love.
20Why should you be intoxicated, my son, with a forbidden woman
   and embrace the bosom of an adulteress?
21For a man’s ways are before the eyes of the LORD,
   and he ponders all his paths.
22The iniquities of the wicked ensnare him,
   and he is held fast in the cords of his sin.
23 He dies for lack of discipline,
   and because of his great folly he is led astray.

- Proverbs 5:18-23 ESV
