Proverbs 5
Young's Literal Translation (YLT)
19 Ref A hind of loves, and a roe of grace! Let her loves satisfy thee at all times, In her love magnify thyself continually.
20 Ref And why dost thou magnify thyself, My son, with a stranger? And embrace the bosom of a strange woman?
21 Ref For over-against the eyes of Jehovah are the ways of each, And all his paths He is pondering.
American Standard-ASV1901 (ASV)
19 Ref `As' a loving hind and a pleasant doe, Let her breasts satisfy thee at all times; And be thou ravished always with her love.
20 Ref For why shouldest thou, my son, be ravished with a strange woman, And embrace the bosom of a foreigner?
21 Ref For the ways of man are before the eyes of Jehovah; And he maketh level all his paths.

19 Ref As a loving hind and a gentle doe, let her breasts ever give you rapture; let your passion at all times be moved by her love.
20 Ref Why let yourself, my son, go out of the way with a strange woman, and take another woman in your arms?
21 Ref For a man's ways are before the eyes of the Lord, and he puts all his goings in the scales.
