Proverbs 5:19 in Context — Proverbs 5

17 Qu’ils soient pour toi seul, Et non pour des étrangers avec toi.

18 Que ta source soit bénie, Et fais ta joie de la femme de ta jeunesse,

19 Biche des amours, gazelle pleine de grâce: Sois en tout temps enivré de ses charmes, Sans cesse épris de son amour.

20 Et pourquoi, mon fils, serais-tu épris d’une étrangère, Et embrasserais-tu le sein d’une inconnue?

21 Car les voies de l’homme sont devant les yeux de l’Éternel, Qui observe tous ses sentiers.
