Proverbs 5:14-21

¹⁴Almost I was in all-evil, in the midst of the church, and of the synagogue.

¹⁵Drink thou water of thy cistern, and the floods of thy well.

¹⁶Thy wells be streamed forth; and part thy waters in streets.

¹⁷Have thou alone them or them alone; and aliens be not thy partners.

¹⁸Thy vein be blessed; and be thou glad with the woman of thy young waxing age.

¹⁹An hind most dearworthy; and an hart calf most acceptable. Her teats fill thee in all time; and delight thou continually in the love of her.

²⁰My son, why art thou deceived of an alien woman; and art fostered in the bosom of another?

²¹The Lord seeth the ways of a man; and he beholdeth all his steps.
