Proverbs 5:15-23 NIV

[15] Drink water from your own cistern, running water from your own well. [16] Should your springs overflow in the streets, your streams of water in the public squares? [17] Let them be yours alone, never to be shared with strangers. [18] May your fountain be blessed, and may you rejoice in the wife of your youth. [19] A loving doe, a graceful deer—may her breasts satisfy you always, may you ever be intoxicated with her love. [20] Why, my son, be intoxicated with another man’s wife? Why embrace the bosom of a wayward woman? [21] For your ways are in full view of the LORD, and he examines all your paths. [22] The evil deeds of the wicked ensnare them; the cords of their sins hold them fast. [23] For lack of discipline they will die, led astray by their own great folly.
