18 Let your fountain be blessed, and take pleasure in the wife of your youth.

19 A loving doe, a graceful fawn— let her breasts always satisfy you; be lost in her love forever.

20 Why, my son, would you be infatuated with a forbidden woman or embrace the breast of a stranger?

21 For a man’s ways are before the LORD’s eyes, and He considers all his paths.

22 A wicked man’s iniquities entrap him; he is entangled in the ropes of his own sin.

23 He will die because there is no discipline, and be lost because of his great stupidity.
