Proverbs 5:20 Context
18Let thy fountaine be blessed: and reioyce with the wife of thy youth. 19Let her bee as the louing Hinde and pleasant Roe, let her breasts satisfie thee at all times, and be thou rauisht alwayes with her loue. 20And why wilt thou, my sonne, be rauisht with a strange woman, and imbrace the bosome of a stranger? 21For the wayes of man are before the eyes of the Lord, and he pondereth all his goings. 22¶ His owne iniquities shall take the wicked himselfe, and he shall be holden with the coards of his sinnes.
