Proverbs 5:15-20

15Drink water from your own cistern, water flowing from your own well.

16Should your springs flow in the streets, streams in the public squares?

17They should be for you alone and not for you to share with strangers.

18Let your fountain be blessed, and take pleasure in the wife of your youth.

19A loving deer, a graceful doe  — let her breasts always satisfy you; be lost in her love forever.

20Why, my son, would you lose yourself with a forbidden woman or embrace a wayward woman?
