Do not be jealous of your own wife; do not give her reason to disgrace you.

Do not put yourself into the power of any woman to the point where she can dominate you.

Do not go near with a woman of ill-repute for fear of falling into her nets.

Do not dally with the singing girl for fear of being caught in her snare.

Do not fix your gaze on a young girl for fear of being involved in her condemnation.

Do not deliver yourself into the power of the prostitutes lest you lose your inheritance.

Turn your eyes away from a good-looking woman and do not stare at a beautiful foreigner. For beauty of a woman has caused many to fall; in her presence love blazes up like fire.

Never sit near a married woman or drink wine with her, for fear that your feelings towards her be roused and that in your passion you slid towards your downfall.
