Proverbs 5:15-23 NIRV

Proverbs 5:15-23

Drink water from your own well.

Drink running water from your own spring.

Should your springs pour out into the streets?

Should your streams of water pour out in public places?

No! Let them belong to you alone.

Never share them with strangers.

May your fountain be blessed.

May the wife you married when you were young make you happy.

She is like a loving doe, a graceful deer.

May her breasts always satisfy you.

May you always be captured by her love.

My son, why be captured by another man’s wife?

Why hug a woman who has gone astray?

The Lord watches your ways.

He studies all your paths.

Sinners are trapped by their own evil acts.

They are held tight by the ropes of their sins.

They will die because they refused to be corrected.

Their sins will capture them because they were very foolish.
