Bible Verses About Lasciviousness

It will rescue you from the forbidden woman, from the stranger with seductive words

who abandons the partner of her youth and forgets the covenant of her God.

For her house sinks down to death, and her tracks to the departed spirits.

Though the lips of the forbidden woman drip honey and her speech is smoother than oil,

in the end she is bitter as wormwood, sharp as a double-edged sword.

Her feet go down to death; her steps lead straight to Sheol.

Keep your path far from her; do not go near the door of her house,

lest you concede your vigor to others, and your years to one who is cruel;

lest strangers feast on your wealth, and your labors enrich the house of a foreigner.

At the end of your life you will groan when your flesh and your body are spent,

and you will say, “How I hated discipline, and my heart despised reproof!

I did not listen to the voice of my teachers or incline my ear to my mentors.

For at the window of my house I looked through the lattice.

I saw among the simple, I noticed among the youths, a young man lacking judgment,

crossing the street near her corner, strolling down the road to her house,

at twilight, as the day was fading into the dark of the night.

Then a woman came out to meet him, with the attire of a harlot and cunning of heart.

She is loud and defiant; her feet do not remain at home.

Now in the street, now in the squares, she lurks at every corner.

She seizes him and kisses him; she brazenly says to him:

“I have made my peace offerings; today I have paid my vows.

So I came out to meet you; I sought you, and I have found you.

I have decked my bed with coverings, with colored linen from Egypt.

I have perfumed my bed with myrrh, with aloes, and with cinnamon.

Come, let us take our fill of love till morning. Let us delight in loving caresses!
