Proverbs 5:18 in context

  1. 16Should your springs overflow in the streets,
    streams of water in the public squares?
  2. 17Let them be for yourself alone,
    not for strangers with you.
  3. 18Let your spring be blessed.
    Rejoice in the wife of your youth.
  4. 19A loving doe and a graceful deer—
    let her breasts satisfy you at all times.
    Be captivated always with her love.
  5. 20For why should you, my son, be captivated with an adulteress?
    Why embrace the bosom of another?
