Proverbs
Chapters 5:12-13-19
Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version
12-13Then you will say, “Why didn’t I listen to my parents? Why didn’t I pay attention to my teachers? I didn’t want to be disciplined. I refused to be corrected.
14So now I have suffered through just about every kind of trouble anyone can have, and everyone knows it.”
15Now, about sex and marriage: Drink only the water that comes from your own well,
16and don’t let your water flow out into the streets.
17Keep it for yourself, and don’t share it with strangers.
18Be happy with your own wife. Enjoy the woman you married while you were young.
19She is like a beautiful deer, a lovely fawn. Let her love satisfy you completely. Stay drunk on her love,
