Proverbs 5:15 in Context — Proverbs 5

13 E não escutei a voz de meus ensinadores, nem ouvi a meus mestres.

14 Quase me achei em todo mal, no meio da congregação e do ajuntamento.

15 Bebe água de tua [própria] cisterna, e das correntes de teu [próprio] poço.

16 Derramar-se-iam por fora tuas fontes, [e] pelas ruas os ribeiros de águas?

17 Sejam somente para ti, e não para os estranhos contigo.
