Proverbs 5:15-23 - Enjoy Marriage

¹⁵ Drink water from your own cistern,
water flowing from your own well.
¹⁶ Should your springs flow in the streets,
streams of water in the public squares?
¹⁷ They should be for you alone
and not for you to share with strangers.
¹⁸ Let your fountain be blessed,
and take pleasure in the wife of your youth.
¹⁹ A loving doe, a graceful fawn—
let her breasts always satisfy you;
be lost in her love forever.
²⁰ Why, my son, would you be infatuated
with a forbidden woman
or embrace the breast of a stranger?
²¹ For a man’s ways are before the Lord’s eyes,
and He considers all his paths.
²² A wicked man’s iniquities entrap him;
he is entangled in the ropes of his own sin.
²³ He will die because there is no discipline,
and be lost because of his great stupidity.
