Proverbs 5:14-18 Amplified Bible (AMP)

14. [The extent and boldness of] my sin involved almost all evil [in the estimation] of the congregation and the community.

15. Drink waters out of your own cistern [of a pure marriage relationship], and fresh running waters out of your own well.

16. Should your offspring be dispersed abroad as water brooks in the streets?

17. [Confine yourself to your own wife] let your children be for you alone, and not the children of strangers with you.

18. Let your fountain [of human life] be blessed [with the rewards of fidelity], and rejoice in the wife of your youth.
