15 Drink water from thy pit, and flowing from the midst of thy well. Drink water from your own cistern, flowing water from your own well. Drink water from your own cistern, running water from your own well.
16 Thy fountains shall be dispersed without; in the broad places streams of waters. Should your springs be scattered abroad, streams of water in the streets? Should your springs overflow in the streets, your streams of water in the public squares?
17 They shall be to thee alone, and not strangers with thee. Let them be for yourself alone, and not for strangers with you. Let them be yours alone, never to be shared with strangers.
18 Thy fountain shall be blessed: and rejoice from the wife of thy youth. Let your fountain be blessed, and rejoice in the wife of your youth, May your fountain be blessed, and may you rejoice in the wife of your youth.
