Proverbs 5:15-20

15DrinkH8354 watersH4325 outH4325 of thine own cisternH953, and running watersH4325 outH4325 of thine own wellH875.

16Should thy springsH4599 be dispersedH6327 abroadH2351, and rivers of waterH4325 in the streetsH2351?

17LetH1961 them be for thyself aloneH905, and notH369 for strangersH2114 with thee.

18LetH8055 thy fountainH4726 be blessedH1288; and rejoiceH8055 in the wifeH802 of thy youthH5271.

19As a lovingH158 hind and a pleasant doeH3280, letH6256 herH3605 breastsH1717 satisfyH7301 thee at allH3605 timesH6256; and be thou ravished alwaysH8548 with herH3605 loveH160.

20For whyH4100 shouldest thou, my sonH1121, be ravished with a strangeH2114 womanH5237, and embraceH2263 the bosomH2436 of a strangerH5237?
