Proverbs 6:26 meaning and explanation
For the levy of the prostitute is poverty, and the adulteress preys upon your very life.
Proverbs 6:26, Berean Standard Bible
Explanation preview
In this verse the father continues warning his son against sexual sin, moving from the prostitute to the adulteress. The Hebrew word rendered "levy" carries the sense of a price or wage, so the point is that the prostitute costs a man his money, while the adulteress costs him far more, his life.
