Proverbs 6:30-35
The chiastic structure of Proverbs 6:30-35
30 Do not men despise
a thief if he steals to satisfy
his appetite when he is hungry?
|
|
31 And if he is caught, he will pay
sevenfold; he will give all the goods of his house. |
|
|
32 He who commits adultery has no
sense; he who does it destroys himself. |
|
|
33 Wounds and dishonor will he get,
and his disgrace will
not be wiped away. |
|
34 For jealousy makes a man furious,
and he will not spare when he
takes revenge. |
35 He will accept no
compensation, nor be appeased though you multiply gifts.
