Proverbs 5:15-20

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

¹⁵ Drink water from your own cistern,
    flowing water from your own well.
¹⁶ Should your springs be scattered abroad,
    streams of water in the streets?
¹⁷ Let them be for yourself alone,
    and not for sharing with strangers.
¹⁸ Let your fountain be blessed,
    and rejoice in the wife of your youth,
¹⁹     a lovely deer, a graceful doe.
May her breasts satisfy you at all times;
    may you be intoxicated always by her love.
²⁰ Why should you be intoxicated, my son, by another woman
    and embrace the bosom of an adulteress?
