Commentary for Proverbs 6:26

כִּ֤י בְעַד־אִשָּׁ֥ה זוֹנָ֗ה עַֽד־כִּכַּ֫ר לָ֥חֶם וְאֵ֥שֶׁת אִ֑ישׁ נֶ֖פֶשׁ יְקָרָ֣ה תָצֽוּד׃ (פ)

For on account of a harlot a man is brought to a loaf of bread, But the adulteress hunteth for the precious life.

Rashi on Proverbs

Because a man is brought to a loaf of bread for a harlot He is reduced to poverty and the lack of all good things.
