New Testament

Proverbs 5:15-21 Modern English Version (MEV)

15. Drink waters out of your own cistern,and running waters out of your own well.

16. Should your fountains be dispersed abroad,streams of water in the streets?

17. Let them be only your own,and not for strangers with you.

18. Let your fountain be blessed,and rejoice with the wife of your youth.

19. Let her be as the loving deer and pleasant doe;let her breasts satisfy you at all times;and always be enraptured with her love.

20. Why should you, my son, be intoxicated by an immoral woman,and embrace the bosom of a seductress?

21. For the ways of man are before the eyes of the Lord,and He ponders all his goings.
