Contextual Overview

¹⁵ Drinke of the water of thyne owne well, and of the riuers that runne out of thyne owne spring. ¹⁶ Let thy welles flowe out abrode, that there may be riuers of waters in the streates: ¹⁷ But let them be onlye thyne owne, and not straungers with thee. ¹⁸ Let thy well be blessed, and be glad with the wyfe of thy youth. ¹⁹ Let her be as the louyng Hinde and pleasaunt Roe: let her breastes alway satisfie thee, and holde thee euer content with her loue. ²⁰ Why wylt thou my sonne haue pleasure in a straunge woman, and embrace the bosome of a straunger? ²¹ For euery mans wayes are open in the sight of the Lord, and he pondereth all their goynges. ²² The wickednes of the vngodly shall catche him selfe, and with the snares of his owne sinne shall he be trapped. ²³ He shall dye without amendement, and for his great foolishnes he shall go astray.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Let thy fountain be blessed,.... Thy wife; make her happy by keeping to her and from others; by behaving in a loving, affable, and respectful manner to her; by living comfortably with her, and providing well for her and her children: or reckon her a happiness, a blessing that God has bestowed; or

"thy fountain shall be blessed,''

as the Targum; that is, with a numerous offspring, which was always reckoned a blessedness, and was generally the happiness of virtuous women, when harlots were barren;

and rejoice with the wife of thy youth; taken to be a wife in youth, and lived with ever since; do not despise her, nor divorce her, even in old age, but delight in her company now as ever; carry it not morosely and churlishly to her, but express a joy and pleasure in her; see Ecclesiastes 9:9. Jarchi interprets this of the law learned in youth; but it might be much better interpreted of the pure apostolic church of Christ, "the beulah", to whom her sons are married,

Isaiah 62:4; to whom they should cleave with delight and pleasure, and not follow the antichristian harlot.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Proverbs 5:18. Let thy fountain be blessed — יהי מקורך ברוך yehi mekorecha baruch. Sit vena tua benedicta. Thy vein; that which carries off streams from the fountain of animal life, in order to disperse them abroad, and through the streets. How delicate and correct is the allusion here! But anatomical allusions must not be pressed into detail in a commentary on Scripture.
