Proverbs 5:15-20

Proverbs 5:15-20 CSB

Drink water from your own cistern, water flowing from your own well. Should your springs flow in the streets, streams in the public squares? They should be for you alone and not for you to share with strangers. Let your fountain be blessed, and take pleasure in the wife of your youth. A loving deer, a graceful doe  — let her breasts always satisfy you; be lost in her love forever. Why, my son, would you lose yourself with a forbidden woman or embrace a wayward woman?
