25 Lust not after her beauty in thine heart; neither let her take thee with her eyelids.
25 Do not lust in your heart after her beauty or let her captivate you with her eyes.
25 Do not desire her beauty in your heart, and do not let her capture you with her eyelashes;
25 Don't lustfully fantasize on her beauty, nor be taken in by her bedroom eyes.
25 Do not lust after her beauty in your heart, Nor let her allure you with her eyelids.
25 Don't lust for her beauty. Don't let her coy glances seduce you.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Proverbs 6:25
Commentary on Proverbs 6:20-35
(Read Proverbs 6:20-35)
The word of God has something to say to us upon all occasions. Let not faithful reproofs ever make us uneasy. When we consider how much this sin abounds, how heinous adultery is in its own nature, of what evil consequence it is, and how certainly it destroys the spiritual life in the soul, we shall not wonder that the cautions against it are so often repeated. Let us notice the subjects of this chapter. Let us remember Him who willingly became our Surety, when we were strangers and enemies. And shall Christians, who have such prospects, motives, and examples, be slothful and careless? Shall we neglect what is pleasing to God, and what he will graciously reward? May we closely watch every sense by which poison can enter our minds or affections.
