Proverbs 5:18 meaning and explanation
May your fountain be blessed, and may you rejoice in the wife of your youth:
Proverbs 5:18, Berean Standard Bible
Explanation preview
In this verse a father, teaching his son in the style of Israel's wisdom literature, turns from warning about the forbidden woman to a positive picture of marriage. The fountain and cistern earlier in the passage point to a man's own wife, and the wife of his youth means the woman he married young and to whom he remains faithful.
