New Testament

Proverbs 5:17-22 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

17. No! Let them belong to you alone. Never share them with strangers.

18. May your fountain be blessed. May the wife you married when you were young make you happy.

19. She is like a loving doe, a graceful deer. May her breasts always satisfy you. May you always be captured by her love.

20. My son, why be captured by a woman who commits adultery? Why hug the wife of another man?

21. The Lord watches a man's ways. He studies all of his paths.

22. A sinner is trapped by his own evil acts. He is held tight by the ropes of his sins.
