  • Num 25:1-6 : 1 And Israel stayed in Shittim, and the people began to commit immorality with the daughters of Moab. 2 And they called the people to the sacrifices of their gods, and the people ate and bowed down to their gods. 3 And Israel joined himself to Baal of Peor, and the anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel. 4 And the LORD said to Moses, Take all the leaders of the people and hang them up before the LORD in the sunlight, that the fierce anger of the LORD may be turned away from Israel. 5 And Moses said to the judges of Israel, Slay each of his men who were joined to Baal of Peor. 6 And behold, one of the children of Israel came and brought to his brethren a Midianite woman in the sight of Moses, and in the sight of all the congregation of the children of Israel, who were weeping before the entrance of the tabernacle of the congregation.
  • Prov 13:20 : 20 He who walks with wise men shall be wise, but a companion of fools shall be destroyed.
  • Hos 4:11-14 : 11 Harlotry and wine and new wine take away the heart. 12 My people ask counsel from their wooden idols, and their staff declares to them, for the spirit of harlotry has caused them to err, and they have gone astray under their God. 13 They sacrifice upon the tops of the mountains, and burn incense upon the hills, under oaks and poplars and elms, because the shade thereof is good. Therefore your daughters shall commit harlotry, and your spouses shall commit adultery. 14 I will not punish your daughters when they commit harlotry, nor your spouses when they commit adultery, for the men themselves are separated with harlots, and they sacrifice with temple prostitutes. Therefore, the people who do not understand shall fall.
  • 1 Cor 10:6-8 : 6 Now these things were our examples, so we should not desire evil things, as they also desired. 7 Do not be idolaters, as some of them were; as it is written, The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play. 8 Do not commit sexual immorality, as some of them did, and in one day twenty-three thousand fell.
  • 2 Pet 2:10-18 : 10 And especially those who walk according to the flesh in the lust of uncleanness and despise authority. They are presumptuous, self-willed, and not afraid to speak evil of dignities. 11 Whereas angels, who are greater in power and might, do not bring a slanderous accusation against them before the Lord. 12 But these, like natural brute beasts made to be caught and destroyed, speak evil of things they do not understand, and will utterly perish in their own corruption; 13 And will receive the wages of unrighteousness, as those who count it pleasure to revel in the daytime. They are spots and blemishes, reveling in their own deceptions while they banquet with you; 14 Having eyes full of adultery and unable to cease from sin, enticing unstable souls. They have a heart trained in covetous practices and are accursed children. 15 They have forsaken the right way and gone astray, following the way of Balaam the son of Beor, who loved the wages of unrighteousness; 16 But was rebuked for his iniquity; the dumb donkey speaking with a man's voice restrained the madness of the prophet. 17 These are wells without water, clouds carried by a tempest, to whom the blackness of darkness is reserved forever. 18 For when they speak great swelling words of vanity, they allure through the lusts of the flesh, through wantonness, those who have barely escaped from those who live in error.
  • Jude 1:7-9 : 7 As Sodom and Gomorrah, and the cities around them in a similar manner to these, having given themselves over to sexual immorality and gone after strange flesh, are set forth as an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire. 8 Likewise also these dreamers defile the flesh, reject authority, and speak evil of dignitaries. 9 Yet Michael the archangel, in contending with the devil, when he disputed about the body of Moses, dared not bring against him a reviling accusation, but said, 'The Lord rebuke you!' 10 But these speak evil of whatever they do not know; and whatever they know naturally, like brute beasts, in these things they corrupt themselves. 11 Woe to them! For they have gone in the way of Cain, have run greedily in the error of Balaam for profit, and perished in the rebellion of Korah. 12 These are spots in your love feasts, while they feast with you without fear, serving only themselves. They are clouds without water, carried about by the winds; late autumn trees without fruit, twice dead, pulled up by the roots; 13 Raging waves of the sea, foaming up their own shame; wandering stars for whom is reserved the blackness of darkness forever.
