Proverbs 5:19-23 Modern English Version (MEV)

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.

22. His own iniquities entrap the wicked himself,and he is snared in the cords of his sins.

23. He will die for lack of instruction,and in the greatness of his folly he will go astray.
