You shall not commit adultery.
(Exodus 20:14)
ESV
If a man is found lying with the
wife of another man, both of them
shall die, the man who lay with
the woman, and the woman. So you
shall purge the evil from Israel.
(Deuteronomy 22:22)
ESV
When a man takes a wife and
marries her, if then she finds no
favor in his eyes because he has
found some indecency in her, and
he writes her a certificate of
divorce and puts it in her hand
and sends her out of his house,
and she departs out of his house,
and if she goes and becomes
another man's wife, and the latter
man hates her and writes her a
certificate of divorce and puts it
in her hand and sends her out of
his house, or if the latter man
dies, who took her to be his wife,
then her former husband, who sent
her away, may not take her again
to be his wife, after she has been
defiled, for that is an
abomination before the Lord. And
you shall not bring sin upon the
land that the Lord your God is
giving you for an inheritance.
(Deuteronomy 24:1-4)
ESV
So you will be delivered from the
forbidden woman, from the
adulteress with her smooth words,
who forsakes the companion of her
youth and forgets the covenant of
her God; for her house sinks down
to death, and her paths to the
departed; none who go to her come
back, nor do they regain the paths
of life.
(Proverbs 2:16-19)
ESV
For the lips of a forbidden woman
drip honey, and her speech is
smoother than oil, but in the end
she is bitter as wormwood, sharp
as a two-edged sword. Her feet go
down to death; her steps follow
the path to Sheol; she does not
ponder the path of life; her ways
wander, and she does not know it.
And now, O sons, listen to me, and
do not depart from the words of my
mouth. ...
(Proverbs 5:3-22)
ESV
To preserve you from the evil
woman, from the smooth tongue of
the adulteress. Do not desire her
beauty in your heart, and do not
let her capture you with her
eyelashes; for the price of a
prostitute is only a loaf of
bread, but a married woman hunts
down a precious life. Can a man
carry fire next to his chest and
his clothes not be burned? Or can
one walk on hot coals and his feet
not be scorched? ...
(Proverbs 6:24-29)
ESV
He who commits adultery lacks
sense; he who does it destroys
himself.
(Proverbs 6:32)
ESV
For a prostitute is a deep pit; an
adulteress is a narrow well.
(Proverbs 23:27)
ESV
But I say to you that everyone who
looks at a woman with lustful
intent has already committed
adultery with her in his heart.
(Matthew 5:28)
ESV
And I say to you: whoever divorces
his wife, except for sexual
immorality, and marries another,
commits adultery.
(Matthew 19:9)
ESV
Everyone who divorces his wife and
marries another commits adultery,
and he who marries a woman
divorced from her husband commits
adultery.
(Luke 16:18)
ESV
Accordingly, she will be called an
adulteress if she lives with
another man while her husband is
alive. But if her husband dies,
she is free from that law, and if
she marries another man she is not
an adulteress.
(Romans 7:3)
ESV
Let us walk properly as in the
daytime, not in orgies and
drunkenness, not in sexual
immorality and sensuality, not in
quarreling and jealousy.
(Romans 13:13)
ESV
Flee from sexual immorality. Every
other sin a person commits is
outside the body, but the sexually
immoral person sins against his
own body.
(1 Corinthians 6:18)
ESV
We must not indulge in sexual
immorality as some of them did,
and twenty-three thousand fell in
a single day.
(1 Corinthians 10:8)
ESV
Love is patient and kind; love
does not envy or boast; it is not
arrogant or rude. It does not
insist on its own way; it is not
irritable or resentful; it does
not rejoice at wrongdoing, but
rejoices with the truth. Love
bears all things, believes all
things, hopes all things, endures
all things.
(1 Corinthians 13:4-7)
ESV
For you may be sure of this, that
everyone who is sexually immoral
or impure, or who is covetous
(that is, an idolater), has no
inheritance in the kingdom of
Christ and God.
(Ephesians 5:5)
ESV
Husbands, love your wives, as
Christ loved the church and gave
himself up for her,
(Ephesians 5:25)
ESV
Let marriage be held in honor
among all, and let the marriage
bed be undefiled, for God will
judge the sexually immoral and
adulterous.
(Hebrews 13:4)
