17. Let them be only thine own and not for strangers with thee.
18. Thy fountain shall be blessed; and rejoice with the wife of thy youth.
19. Let her be as the loving hind and pleasant roe; let her breasts satisfy thee at all times; and be thou ravished always with her love, without eyes for anyone else.
20. And why wilt thou, my son, be ravished with a woman belonging to someone else, and embrace the bosom of a stranger?
21. For the ways of man are before the eyes of the Lord, and he weighs all his goings.
