Proverbes 5:15-19
La Bible du Semeur
La beauté de la fidélité
15 Bois les eaux de ta propre citerne
et celles qui jaillissent de ta fontaine[a] :
16 tes sources doivent-elles se disperser au-dehors
et tes ruisseaux dans les rues[b] ?
17 Qu’ils soient pour toi seul !
Ne les partage pas avec des étrangers.
18 Que ta source soit bénie !
Fais ta joie de la femme que tu as aimée dans ta jeunesse,
19 biche charmante, gracieuse gazelle,
que ses charmes t’enivrent toujours
et que tu sois sans cesse épris de son amour !
Proverbs 5:15-19
New King James Version
15 Drink water from your own cistern,
And running water from your own well.
16 Should your fountains be dispersed abroad,
[a]Streams of water in the streets?
17 Let them be only your own,
And not for strangers with you.
18 Let your fountain be blessed,
And rejoice with (A)the wife of your youth.
19 (B)As a loving deer and a graceful doe,
Let her breasts satisfy you at all times;
And always be [b]enraptured with her love.

King James Version
15 Drink waters out of thine own cistern, and running waters out of thine own well.
16 Let thy fountains be dispersed abroad, and rivers of waters in the streets.
17 Let them be only thine own, and not strangers' with thee.
18 Let thy fountain be blessed: and rejoice with the wife of thy youth.
19 Let her be as the loving hind and pleasant roe; let her breasts satisfy thee at all times; and be thou ravished always with her love.
