15 Drink waters out of your own cistern, And running waters out of your own well.

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

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

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

19 [As] a loving hind and a pleasant doe, Let her nipples immerse you at all times; And be ravished always with her love.

20 For why should you, my son, be ravished with a strange woman, And embrace the bosom of a foreigner?
