I find more bitter than death the woman who is a snare, whose heart is a trap and whose hands are chains. The man who pleases God will escape her, but the sinner she will ensnare. (niv)

now in the street, now in the squares, at every corner she lurks.) (niv)

The mouth of an adulterous woman is a deep pit; a man who is under the Lord’s wrath falls into it. (niv)

One of the seven angels who had the seven bowls came and said to me,“ Come, I will show you the punishment of the great prostitute, who sits by many waters.With her the kings of the earth committed adultery, and the inhabitants of the earth were intoxicated with the wine of her adulteries.” (niv)

Wisdom will save you also from the adulterous woman, from the wayward woman with her seductive words,who has left the partner of her youth and ignored the covenant she made before God.Surely her house leads down to death and her paths to the spirits of the dead.None who go to her return or attain the paths of life. (niv)

While Israel was staying in Shittim, the men began to indulge in sexual immorality with Moabite women, (niv)

“ Look up to the barren heights and see. Is there any place where you have not been ravished? By the roadside you sat waiting for lovers, sat like a nomad in the desert. You have defiled the land with your prostitution and wickedness. (niv)

to prostitution; old wine and new wine take away their understanding. (niv)

Some time later, he fell in love with a woman in the Valley of Sorek whose name was Delilah.The rulers of the Philistines went to her and said,“ See if you can lure him into showing you the secret of his great strength and how we can overpower him so we may tie him up and subdue him. Each one of us will give you eleven hundred shekels of silver.”So Delilah said to Samson,“ Tell me the secret of your great strength and how you can be tied up and subdued.”Samson answered her,“ If anyone ties me with seven fresh bowstrings that have not been dried, I’ll become as weak as any other man.”Then the rulers of the Philistines brought her seven fresh bowstrings that had not been dried, and she tied him with them.With men hidden in the room, she called to him,“ Samson, the Philistines are upon you!” But he snapped the bowstrings as easily as a piece of string snaps when it comes close to a flame. So the secret of his strength was not discovered.Then Delilah said to Samson,“ You have made a fool of me; you lied to me. Come now, tell me how you can be tied.”He said,“ If anyone ties me securely with new ropes that have never been used, I’ll become as weak as any other man.”So Delilah took new ropes and tied him with them. Then, with men hidden in the room, she called to him,“ Samson, the Philistines are upon you!” But he snapped the ropes off his arms as if they were threads.Delilah then said to Samson,“ All this time you have been making a fool of me and lying to me. Tell me how you can be tied.” He replied,“ If you weave the seven braids of my head into the fabric on the loom and tighten it with the pin, I’ll become as weak as any other man.” So while he was sleeping, Delilah took the seven braids of his head, wove them into the fabricand tightened it with the pin. Again she called to him,“ Samson, the Philistines are upon you!” He awoke from his sleep and pulled up the pin and the loom, with the fabric.Then she said to him,“ How can you say,‘ I love you,’ when you won’t confide in me? This is the third time you have made a fool of me and haven’t told me the secret of your great strength.”With such nagging she prodded him day after day until he was sick to death of it.So he told her everything.“ No razor has ever been used on my head,” he said,“ because I have been a Nazirite dedicated to God from my mother’s womb. If my head were shaved, my strength would leave me, and I would become as weak as any other man.”When Delilah saw that he had told her everything, she sent word to the rulers of the Philistines,“ Come back once more; he has told me everything.” So the rulers of the Philistines returned with the silver in their hands.After putting him to sleep on her lap, she called for someone to shave off the seven braids of his hair, and so began to subdue him. And his strength left him.Then she called,“ Samson, the Philistines are upon you!” He awoke from his sleep and thought,“ I’ll go out as before and shake myself free.” But he did not know that the Lord had left him.Then the Philistines seized him, gouged out his eyes and took him down to Gaza. Binding him with bronze shackles, they set him to grinding grain in the prison.But the hair on his head began to grow again after it had been shaved. (niv)

But little do they know that the dead are there, that her guests are deep in the realm of the dead. (niv)

All at once he followed her like an ox going to the slaughter, like a deer stepping into a noosetill an arrow pierces his liver, like a bird darting into a snare, little knowing it will cost him his life.Now then, my sons, listen to me; pay attention to what I say.Do not let your heart turn to her ways or stray into her paths.Many are the victims she has brought down; her slain are a mighty throng.Her house is a highway to the grave, leading down to the chambers of death. (niv)

We should not commit sexual immorality, as some of them did— and in one day twenty-three thousand of them died. (niv)
