I am posting the Proverbs for those who have spouses in adultery. I assumed all standers knew the Proverbs, but it has come to my attention that some do not. Since Proverbs is a key book for standers who have spouses in adultery, I wanted to make sure everyone knows of the Proverbs for praying over their spouses.
Proverbs Chapter 2:
Pro 2:1 My son, if thou wilt receive my words, and hide my commandments with thee; Pro 2:2 So that thou incline thine ear unto wisdom, and apply thine heart to understanding; Pro 2:3 Yea, if thou criest after knowledge, and liftest up thy voice for understanding;
Pro 2:4 If thou seekest her as silver, and searchest for her as for hid treasures; Pro 2:5 Then shalt thou understand the fear of the LORD, and find the knowledge of God. Pro 2:6 For the LORD giveth wisdom: out of his mouth cometh knowledge and understanding. Pro 2:7 He layeth up sound wisdom for the righteous: he is a buckler to them that walk uprightly. Pro 2:8 He keepeth the paths of judgment, and preserveth the way of his saints. Pro 2:9 Then shalt thou understand righteousness, and judgment, and equity; yea, every good path. Pro 2:10 When wisdom entereth into thine heart, and knowledge is pleasant unto thy soul;
Pro 2:11 Discretion shall preserve thee, understanding shall keep thee:
Pro 2:12 To deliver thee from the way of the evil man, from the man that speaketh froward things; Pro 2:13 Who leave the paths of uprightness, to walk in the ways of darkness; Pro 2:14 Who rejoice to do evil, and delight in the frowardness of the wicked; Pro 2:15 Whose ways are crooked, and they froward in their paths: Pro 2:16 To deliver thee from the strange woman, even from the stranger which flattereth with her words; Pro 2:17 Which forsaketh the guide of her youth, and forgetteth the covenant of her God. Pro 2:18 For her house inclineth unto death, and her paths unto the dead. Pro 2:19 None that go unto her return again, neither take they hold of the paths of life. Pro 2:20 That thou mayest walk in the way of good men, and keep the paths of the righteous. Pro 2:21 For the upright shall dwell in the land, and the perfect shall remain in it. Pro 2:22 But the wicked shall be cut off from the earth, and the transgressors shall be rooted out of it.
Proverbs 5 - Bitter as gall scripture (Depending on what bible version you are reading, some list it as bitter as gall, some as bitter as wormwood. I am taking out of KJ in what I am pasting).
Pro 5:1 My son, attend unto my wisdom, and bow thine ear to my understanding: Pro 5:2 That thou mayest regard discretion, and that thy lips may keep knowledge. Pro 5:3 For the lips of a strange woman drop as an honeycomb, and her mouth is smoother than oil:
Pro 5:4 But her end is bitter as wormwood, sharp as a twoedged sword.
Pro 5:5 Her feet go down to death; her steps take hold on hell.
Pro 5:6 Lest thou shouldest ponder the path of life, her ways are moveable, that thou canst not know them. Pro 5:7 Hear me now therefore, O ye children, and depart not from the words of my mouth.
Pro 5:8 Remove thy way far from her, and come not nigh the door of her house: Pro 5:9 Lest thou give thine honour unto others, and thy years unto the cruel: Pro 5:10 Lest strangers be filled with thy wealth; and thy labours be in the house of a stranger; Pro 5:11 And thou mourn at the last, when thy flesh and thy body are consumed, Pro 5:12 And say, How have I hated instruction, and my heart despised reproof;
Pro 5:13 And have not obeyed the voice of my teachers, nor inclined mine ear to them that instructed me! Pro 5:14 I was almost in all evil in the midst of the congregation and assembly. Pro 5:15 Drink waters out of thine own cistern, and running waters out of thine own well.
Pro 5:16 Let thy fountains be dispersed abroad, and rivers of waters in the streets. Pro 5:17 Let them be only thine own, and not strangers' with thee. Pro 5:18 Let thy fountain be blessed: and rejoice with the wife of thy youth. Pro 5:19 Let her be as the loving hind and pleasant roe; let her breasts satisfy thee at all times; and be thou ravished always with her love. Pro 5:20 And why wilt thou, my son, be ravished with a strange woman, and embrace the bosom of a stranger? Pro 5:21 For the ways of man are before the eyes of the LORD, and he pondereth all his goings.
Pro 5:22 His own iniquities shall take the wicked himself, and he shall be holden with the cords of his sins. Pro 5:23 He shall die without instruction; and in the greatness of his folly he shall go astray.
Proverbs 6:
Pro 6:20 My son, keep thy father's commandment, and forsake not the law of thy mother: Pro 6:21 Bind them continually upon thine heart, and tie them about thy neck. Pro 6:22 When thou goest, it shall lead thee; when thou sleepest, it shall keep thee; and when thou awakest, it shall talk with thee. Pro 6:23 For the commandment is a lamp; and the law is light; and reproofs of instruction are the way of life: Pro 6:24 To keep thee from the evil woman, from the flattery of the tongue of a strange woman. Pro 6:25 Lust not after her beauty in thine heart; neither let her take thee with her eyelids. Pro 6:26 For by means of a whorish woman a man is brought to a piece of bread: and the adulteress will hunt for the precious life. Pro 6:27 Can a man take fire in his bosom, and his clothes not be burned? Pro 6:28 Can one go upon hot coals, and his feet not be burned? Pro 6:29 So he that goeth in to his neighbour's wife; whosoever toucheth her shall not be innocent. Pro 6:30 Men do not despise a thief, if he steal to satisfy his soul when he is hungry; Pro 6:31 But if he be found, he shall restore sevenfold; he shall give all the substance of his house. Pro 6:32 But whoso committeth adultery with a woman lacketh understanding: he that doeth it destroyeth his own soul. Pro 6:33 A wound and dishonour shall he get; and his reproach shall not be wiped away. Pro 6:34 For jealousy is the rage of a man: therefore he will not spare in the day of vengeance. Pro 6:35 He will not regard any ransom; neither will he rest content, though thou givest many gifts.
Proverbs 7:
Pro 7:1 My son, keep my words, and lay up my commandments with thee. Pro 7:2 Keep my commandments, and live; and my law as the apple of thine eye. Pro 7:3 Bind them upon thy fingers, write them upon the table of thine heart. Pro 7:4 Say unto wisdom, Thou art my sister; and call understanding thy kinswoman: Pro 7:5 That they may keep thee from the strange woman, from the stranger which flattereth with her words. Pro 7:6 For at the window of my house I looked through my casement, Pro 7:7 And beheld among the simple ones, I discerned among the youths, a young man void of understanding,
Pro 7:8 Passing through the street near her corner; and he went the way to her house, Pro 7:9 In the twilight, in the evening, in the black and dark night: Pro 7:10 And, behold, there met him a woman with the attire of an harlot, and subtil of heart. Pro 7:11 (She is loud and stubborn; her feet abide not in her house: Pro 7:12 Now is she without, now in the streets, and lieth in wait at every corner.) Pro 7:13 So she caught him, and kissed him, and with an impudent face said unto him,
Pro 7:14 I have peace offerings with me; this day have I payed my vows. Pro 7:15 Therefore came I forth to meet thee, diligently to seek thy face, and I have found thee. Pro 7:16 I have decked my bed with coverings of tapestry, with carved works, with fine linen of Egypt.
Pro 7:17 I have perfumed my bed with myrrh, aloes, and cinnamon.
Pro 7:18 Come, let us take our fill of love until the morning: let us solace ourselves with loves. Pro 7:19 For the goodman is not at home, he is gone a long journey: Pro 7:20 He hath taken a bag of money with him, and will come home at the day appointed. Pro 7:21 With her much fair speech she caused him to yield, with the flattering of her lips she forced him. Pro 7:22 He goeth after her straightway, as an ox goeth to the slaughter, or as a fool to the correction of the stocks;
Pro 7:23 Till a dart strike through his liver; as a bird hasteth to the snare, and knoweth not that it is for his life. Pro 7:24 Hearken unto me now therefore, O ye children, and attend to the words of my mouth.
Pro 7:25 Let not thine heart decline to her ways, go not astray in her paths. Pro 7:26 For she hath cast down many wounded: yea, many strong men have been slain by her. Pro 7:27 Her house is the way to hell, going down to the chambers of death.
Proverbs 9:
Pro 9:13 A foolish woman is clamorous: she is simple, and knoweth nothing. Pro 9:14 For she sitteth at the door of her house, on a seat in the high places of the city, Pro 9:15 To call passengers who go right on their ways: Pro 9:16 Whoso is simple, let him turn in hither: and as for him that wanteth understanding, she saith to him, Pro 9:17 Stolen waters are sweet, and bread eaten in secret is pleasant. Pro 9:18 But he knoweth not that the dead are there; and that her guests are in the depths of hell.

Pro 2:11 Discretion shall preserve thee, understanding shall keep thee:
Pro 2:12 To deliver thee from the way of the evil man, from the man that speaketh froward things; Pro 2:13 Who leave the paths of uprightness, to walk in the ways of darkness; Pro 2:14 Who rejoice to do evil, and delight in the frowardness of the wicked; Pro 2:15 Whose ways are crooked, and they froward in their paths: Pro 2:16 To deliver thee from the strange woman, even from the stranger which flattereth with her words; Pro 2:17 Which forsaketh the guide of her youth, and forgetteth the covenant of her God.
