17. Let them be to thee for thyself, And not to strangers with thee.
18. Let thy fountain be blessed, And rejoice because of the wife of thy youth,
19. A hind of loves, and a roe of grace! Let her loves satisfy thee at all times, In her love magnify thyself continually.
20. And why dost thou magnify thyself, My son, with a stranger? And embrace the bosom of a strange woman?
21. For over-against the eyes of Jehovah are the ways of each, And all his paths He is pondering.
