"Men do not despise a thief, if he steal To satisfy himself when he is hungry: "
— Proverbs 6:30, American Standard Version
“Men do not despise a thief, if he steal to satisfy his soul when he is hungry;”
“Men don't despise a thief, if he steals to satisfy himself when he is hungry:”
“People do not despise a thief when he steals to fulfill his need when he is hungry.”
“The fault is not so great when a man hath stolen: for he stealeth to fill his hungry soul:”
“Men do not have a low opinion of a thief who takes food when he is in need of it:”
“Men do not despise a thief, if he steal to satisfy his soul when he is hungry;”
Can a man take fire in his bosom, And his clothes not be burned?
Or can one walk upon hot coals, And his feet not be scorched?
So he that goeth in to his neighbor’s wife; Whosoever toucheth her shall not be unpunished.
Men do not despise a thief, if he steal To satisfy himself when he is hungry:
But if he be found, he shall restore sevenfold; He shall give all the substance of his house.
He that committeth adultery with a woman is void of understanding: He doeth it who would destroy his own soul.
Wounds and dishonor shall he get; And his reproach shall not be wiped away.
