18 Be happy with the wife you married when you were young.
    She gives you joy, as your fountain gives you water.
19 She is as lovely and graceful as a deer.
    Let her love always make you happy;

20 My son, don’t be held captive by a woman who takes part in adultery.
    Don’t fondle a woman who is not your wife.
