15 Drink water from your own cistern,
running water from your own well. |
16 Should your springs overflow in the streets,
your streams of water in the public squares? |
17 Let them be yours alone,
never to be shared with strangers. |
18 May your fountain be blessed,
and may you rejoice in the wife of your youth. |
19 A loving doe, a graceful deer-
may her breasts satisfy you always,
may you ever be captivated by her love. |
