15Drink water from your own cistern
         And fresh water from your own well.

16Should your springs be dispersed abroad,
         Streams of water in the streets?

17Let them be yours alone
         And not for strangers with you.

18Let your fountain be blessed,
         And rejoice in the wife of your youth.

19As a loving hind and a graceful doe,
         Let her breasts satisfy you at all times;
         Be exhilarated always with her love.

20For why should you, my son, be exhilarated with an adulteress
         And embrace the bosom of a foreigner?

21For the ways of a man are before the eyes of the LORD,
         And He watches all his paths.

22His own iniquities will capture the wicked,
         And he will be held with the cords of his sin.

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