Proverbs 5:18-20

18Let your 1fountain be blessed, And 2rejoice in the 3wife of your youth.19As a loving 4hind and a graceful doe, Let her breasts satisfy you at all times; Be 5exhilarated always with her love.20For why should you, my son, be exhilarated with an 6 7adulteress And embrace the bosom of a 8foreigner?
