“Why be captivated, my son, by an adulteress, or embrace the bosom of a stranger?”
Proverbs 5:20 (BSB)
Context Reading
18May your fountain be blessed, and may you rejoice in the wife of your youth: 19A loving doe, a graceful fawn — may her breasts satisfy you always; may you be captivated by her love forever. 20Why be captivated, my son, by an adulteress, or embrace the bosom of a stranger? 21For a man’s ways are before the eyes of the LORD, and the LORD examines all his paths. 22The iniquities of a wicked man entrap him; the cords of his sin entangle him.
