Proverbs 5



<< Proverbs 5 >>
GOD'S WORD ® Translation
 

17They should be yours alone, so do not share them with strangers.

18Let your own fountain be blessed, and enjoy the girl you married when you were young,

19a loving doe and a graceful deer. Always let her breasts satisfy you. Always be intoxicated with her love.

20Why should you, my son, be intoxicated with an adulterous woman and fondle a loose woman's breast?

21Each person's ways are clearly seen by the LORD, and he surveys all his actions.

22A wicked person will be trapped by his own wrongs, and he will be caught in the ropes of his own sin.

23He will die for his lack of discipline and stumble around because of his great stupidity.
