the original meaning, and the meaning likely meant by the translators of the Bible, was to bop hookers.

There really isn't any debate between Bible scholars on this issue. Common consensus among Bible scholars of all languages that the Bible condemns sexual relations outside of marriage. Unless scholars translating the Bible into languages as diverse as French, Greek, Russian, Spanish, German, Hebrew, and English have all made the same kind of translation error in their repsective languages, it's unlikely you've made a real discovery here.

But if you're still in doubt, there are Biblical scholars on FR that could help you with the Greek and Hebrew original sources if you're so inclined.
