Proverbs 6:26

כִּ֤י בְעַ֣ד אִשָּׁ֣ה זוֹנָ֑ה עַד כִּכַּ֣ר לָ֭חֶם וְאֵ֥שֶׁת אִ֗֝ישׁ נֶ֣פֶשׁ יְקָרָ֣ה תָצֽוּד׃
King James Version (KJV)

For by means of a whorish woman a man is brought to a piece of bread: and the adulteress will hunt for the precious life.

Modern English

for the price of a prostitute is only a loaf of bread, but a married woman hunts down a precious life.

Hebrew

כִּ֤י בְעַ֣ד אִשָּׁ֣ה זוֹנָ֑ה עַד כִּכַּ֣ר לָ֭חֶם וְאֵ֥שֶׁת אִ֗֝ישׁ נֶ֣פֶשׁ יְקָרָ֣ה תָצֽוּד׃
