Proverbs 5:15-21

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

¹⁶Why should your springs be spilled outside, your streams of water poured out in the streets?

¹⁷Keep them for yourselves alone. They're not for you to share with strangers.

¹⁸May your spring of water be blessed, and may you enjoy the wife you married when you were young.

¹⁹May she be to you a loving deer, a graceful doe. May her breasts always be intoxicating to you; may you be drunk on her love forever.

²⁰Why, my son, become intoxicated with an immoral woman? Why embrace the breasts of a woman who acts like a prostitute?

²¹For the Lord sees everything people do, the Lord investigates everywhere they go.
