Proverbs 5:15-20
15Drink water from your own cistern and running water from your own well.
16Should your springs be dispersed outside, your streams of water in the wide plazas?
17Let them be for yourself alone, and not for strangers with you.
18May your fountain be blessed, and may you rejoice in your young wife –
19a loving doe, a graceful deer; may her breasts satisfy you at all times, may you be captivated by her love always.
20But why should you be captivated, my son, by an adulteress, and embrace the bosom of a different woman?
