   ¹⁵¶ Drink waters out of thine own cistern, and running waters out of thine own well.

   ¹⁶Let thy fountains be dispersed abroad, and rivers of waters in the streets.

   ¹⁷Let them be only thine own, and not strangers’ with thee.

   ¹⁸Let thy fountain be blessed: and rejoice with the wife of thy youth.

   ¹⁹Let 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.

   ²⁰And why wilt thou, my son, be ravished with a strange woman, and embrace the bosom of a stranger?

   ²¹For the ways of man are before the eyes of the Lord, and he pondereth all his goings.

   ²²¶ His own iniquities shall take the wicked himself, and he shall be holden with the cords of his sins.

   ²³He shall die without instruction; and in the greatness of his folly he shall go astray.

   ²Nevertheless, to avoid fornication, let every man have his own wife, and let every woman have her own husband.

   ³Let the husband render unto the wife due benevolence: and likewise also the wife unto the husband.

   ⁴The wife hath not power of her own body, but the husband: and likewise also the husband hath not power of his own body, but the wife.

   ⁵Defraud ye not one the other, except it be with consent for a time, that ye may give yourselves to fasting and prayer; and come together again, that Satan tempt you not for your incontinency.

   ⁶But I speak this by permission, and not of commandment.

   ⁷For I would that all men were even as I myself. But every man hath his proper gift of God, one after this manner, and another after that.

   ⁸I say therefore to the unmarried and widows, It is good for them if they abide even as I.

   ⁹But if they cannot contain, let them marry: for it is better to marry than to burn.

   ¹⁰And unto the married I command, yet not I, but the Lord, Let not the wife depart from her husband:

   ¹¹But and if she depart, let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband: and let not the husband put away his wife.

   ¹²But to the rest speak I, not the Lord: If any brother hath a wife that believeth not, and she be pleased to dwell with him, let him not put her away.

   ¹³And the woman which hath an husband that believeth not, and if he be pleased to dwell with her, let her not leave him.

   ¹⁴For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the husband: else were your children unclean; but now are they holy.

   ¹⁵But if the unbelieving depart, let him depart. A brother or a sister is not under bondage in such cases: but God hath called us to peace.

   ¹⁶For what knowest thou, O wife, whether thou shalt save thy husband? or how knowest thou, O man, whether thou shalt save thy wife?
