I am the roseH2261 of SharonH8289, and the lilyH7799 of the valleysH6010.
As the lilyH7799 among thornsH2336, so is my loveH7474 among the daughtersH1323.
As the apple treeH8598 among the treesH6086 of the woodH3293, so is my belovedH1730 among the sonsH1121. I satH3427 down under his shadowH6738 with great delightH2530, and his fruitH6529 was sweetH4966 to my tasteH2441. {I sat…: Heb. I delighted and sat down, etc} {taste: Heb. palate}
He broughtH935 me to the banquetingH3196 houseH1004, and his bannerH1714 over me was loveH160. {banqueting…: Heb. house of wine}
StayH5564 me with flagonsH809, comfortH7502 me with applesH8598: for I am sickH2470 of loveH160. {comfort…: Heb. straw me with apples}
His left handH8040 is under my headH7218, and his right handH3225 doth embraceH2263 me.
I chargeH7650 you, O ye daughtersH1323 of JerusalemH3389, by the roesH6643, andH176 by the hindsH355 of the fieldH7704, that ye stir not upH5782, nor awakeH5782 my loveH160, till he pleaseH2654. {I charge…: Heb. I adjure you}
The voiceH6963 of my belovedH1730! behold, he comethH935 leapingH1801 upon the mountainsH2022, skippingH7092 upon the hillsH1389.
My belovedH1730 is likeH1819 a roeH6643 or a youngH6082 hartH354: behold, he standethH5975 behindH310 our wallH3796, he looketh forthH7688 at the windowsH2474, shewingH6692 himself through the latticeH2762. {shewing…: Heb. flourishing}
My belovedH1730 spakeH6030, and saidH559 unto me, Rise upH6965, my loveH7474, my fair oneH3303, and come awayH3212.
For, lo, the winterH5638 is pastH5674, the rainH1653 is overH2498 and goneH1980;
The flowersH5339 appearH7200 on the earthH776; the timeH6256 of the singingH2158 of birds is comeH5060, and the voiceH6963 of the turtleH8449 is heardH8085 in our landH776;
The fig treeH8384 putteth forthH2590 her green figsH6291, and the vinesH1612 with the tender grapeH5563 giveH5414 a good smellH7381. AriseH6965, my loveH7474, my fair oneH3303, and come awayH3212.
O my doveH3123, that art in the cleftsH2288 of the rockH5553, in the secretH5643 places of the stairsH4095, let me seeH7200 thy countenanceH4758, let me hearH8085 thy voiceH6963; for sweetH6156 is thy voiceH6963, and thy countenanceH4758 is comelyH5000.
TakeH270 us the foxesH7776, the littleH6996 foxesH7776, that spoilH2254 the vinesH3754: for our vinesH3754 have tender grapesH5563.
My belovedH1730 is mine, and I am his: he feedethH7462 among the liliesH7799.
Until the dayH3117 breakH6315, and the shadowsH6752 flee awayH5127, turnH5437, my belovedH1730, and be thou likeH1819 a roeH6643 or a youngH6082 hartH354 upon the mountainsH2022 of BetherH1336. {of Bether: or, of division}

I sleepH3463, but my heartH3820 wakethH5782: it is the voiceH6963 of my belovedH1730 that knockethH1849, saying, OpenH6605 to me, my sisterH269, my loveH7474, my doveH3123, my undefiledH8535: for my headH7218 is filledH4390 with dewH2919, and my locksH6977 with the dropsH7447 of the nightH3915.
Moreover he saidH559, I am the GodH430 of thy fatherH1, the GodH430 of AbrahamH85, the GodH430 of IsaacH3327, and the GodH430 of JacobH3290. And MosesH4872 hidH5641 his faceH6440; for he was afraidH3372 to lookH5027 upon GodH430.
And it shall come to pass, while my gloryH3519 passeth byH5674, that I will putH7760 thee in a cliftH5366 of the rockH6697, and will coverH5526 thee with my handH3709 whileH5704 I pass byH5674:
Thou that dwellestH3427 in the gardensH1588, the companionsH2270 hearkenH7181 to thy voiceH6963: cause me to hearH8085 it.
I am blackH7838, but comelyH5000, O ye daughtersH1323 of JerusalemH3389, as the tentsH168 of KedarH6938, as the curtainsH3407 of SolomonH8010.
My doveH3123, my undefiledH8535 is but oneH259; she is the only oneH259 of her motherH517, she is the choiceH1249 one of her that bareH3205 her. The daughtersH1323 sawH7200 her, and blessedH833 her; yea, the queensH4436 and the concubinesH6370, and they praisedH1984 her.
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto him, Who hath madeH7760 man'sH120 mouthH6310? or who makethH7760 the dumbH483, or deafH2795, or the seeingH6493, or the blindH5787? have not I the LORDH3068?
Now therefore goH3212, and I will be with thy mouthH6310, and teachH3384 thee what thou shalt sayH1696.
And he saidH559, OH994 my LordH136, sendH7971, I pray thee, by the handH3027 of him whom thou wilt sendH7971. {wilt: or, shouldest}
And I will takeH5493 away mine handH3709, and thou shalt seeH7200 my back partsH268: but my faceH6440 shall not be seenH7200.
Whoso offerethH2076 praiseH8426 glorifiethH3513 me: and to him that orderethH7760 his conversationH1870 aright will I shewH7200 the salvationH3468 of GodH430. {that…: Heb. that disposeth his way}
If thou knowH3045 not, O thou fairestH3303 among womenH802, go thy way forthH3318 by the footstepsH6119 of the flockH6629, and feedH7462 thy kidsH1429 beside the shepherds'H7462 tentsH4908.
Though ye have lienH7901 among the potsH8240, yet shall ye be as the wingsH3671 of a doveH3123 coveredH2645 with silverH3701, and her feathersH84 with yellowH3422 goldH2742.
And at the eveningH6153 sacrificeH4503 I arose upH6965 from my heavinessH8589; and having rentH7167 my garmentH899 and my mantleH4598, I fellH3766 upon my kneesH1290, and spread outH6566 my handsH3709 unto the LORDH3068 my GodH430, {heaviness: or, affliction}
To goH935 into the cleftsH5366 of the rocksH6697, and into the topsH5585 of the ragged rocksH5553, forH6440 fearH6343 of the LORDH3068, and for the gloryH1926 of his majestyH1347, when he arisethH6965 to shake terriblyH6206 the earthH776.
And callH7121 upon me in the dayH3117 of troubleH6869: I will deliverH2502 thee, and thou shalt glorifyH3513 me.
For the LORDH3068 shall comfortH5162 ZionH6726: he will comfortH5162 all her waste placesH2723; and he will makeH7760 her wildernessH4057 like EdenH5731, and her desertH6160 like the gardenH1588 of the LORDH3068; joyH8342 and gladnessH8057 shall be foundH4672 therein, thanksgivingH8426, and the voiceH6963 of melodyH2172.
Who is she that looketh forthH8259 as the morningH7837, fairH3303 as the moonH3842, clearH1249 as the sunH2535, and terribleH366 as an army with bannersH1713?
O deliverH5414 not the soulH5315 of thy turtledoveH8449 unto the multitudeH2416 of the wicked: forgetH7911 not the congregationH2416 of thy poorH6041 for everH5331.
And saidH559, O my GodH430, I am ashamedH954 and blushH3637 to lift upH7311 my faceH6440 to thee, my GodH430: for our iniquitiesH5771 are increasedH7235 overH4605 our headH7218, and our trespassH819 is grown upH1431 unto the heavensH8064. {trespass: or, guiltiness}
Thy terriblenessH8606 hath deceivedH5377 thee, and the prideH2087 of thine heartH3820, O thou that dwellestH7931 in the cleftsH2288 of the rockH5553, that holdestH8610 the heightH4791 of the hillH1389: though thou shouldest make thy nestH7064 as highH1361 as the eagleH5404, I will bring thee downH3381 from thence, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
The sacrificeH2077 of the wickedH7563 is an abominationH8441 to the LORDH3068: but the prayerH8605 of the uprightH3477 is his delightH7522.
AndG2532 the fourG5064 beastsG2226 hadG2192 eachG303+G1520 of themG2596+G1438 sixG1803 wingsG4420 aboutG2943 him; andG2532 they were fullG1073 of eyesG3788 withinG2081: andG2532 they restG372 notG3756+G2192 dayG2250 andG2532 nightG3571, sayingG3004, HolyG40, holyG40, holyG40, LordG2962 GodG2316 AlmightyG3841, whichG3588 wasG2258+G3801, andG2532 isG5607+G3801, andG2532 is to comeG2064+G3801. {rest…: Gr. have no rest}
AndG2532 whenG3752 those beastsG2226 giveG1325 gloryG1391 andG2532 honourG5092 andG2532 thanksG2169 to him that satG2521 onG1909 the throneG2362, whoG3588 livethG2198 forG1519 everG165 and everG165,
The fourG5064 andG2532 twentyG1501 eldersG4245 fall downG4098 beforeG1799 him that satG2521 onG1909 the throneG2362, andG2532 worshipG4352 him that livethG2198 forG1519 everG165 and everG165, andG2532 castG906 theirG846 crownsG4735 beforeG1799 the throneG2362, sayingG3004,
So shall the kingH4428 greatly desireH183 thy beautyH3308: for he is thy LordH113; and worshipH7812 thou him.
If I had calledH7121, and he had answeredH6030 me; yet would I not believeH539 that he had hearkenedH238 unto my voiceH6963.
The prideH2087 of thine heartH3820 hath deceivedH5377 thee, thou that dwellestH7931 in the cleftsH2288 of the rockH5553, whose habitationH3427 is highH4791; that saithH559 in his heartH3820, Who shall bring me downH3381 to the groundH776?
Let usG4334 thereforeG3767 comeG4334 boldlyG3326+G3954 unto the throneG2362 of graceG5485, thatG2443 we may obtainG2983 mercyG1656, andG2532 findG2147 graceG5485 to helpG996 inG1519 time of needG2121.
AndG2532 whenG3753 he had takenG2983 the bookG975, the fourG5064 beastsG2226 andG2532 fourG5064 and twentyG1501 eldersG4245 fell downG4098 beforeG1799 the LambG721, havingG2192 every one of themG1538 harpsG2788, andG2532 goldenG5552 vialsG5357 fullG1073 of odoursG2368, whichG3739 areG1526 the prayersG4335 of saintsG40. {odours: or, incense}
Thy peopleH5971 shall be willingH5071 in the dayH3117 of thy powerH2428, in the beautiesH1926 of holinessH6944 from the wombH7358 of the morningH4891: thou hast the dewH2919 of thy youthH3208. {from…: or, more than the womb of the morning: thou shalt have, etc}
But they that escapeH6403 of them shall escapeH6412, and shall be on the mountainsH2022 like dovesH3123 of the valleysH1516, all of them mourningH1993, every oneH376 for his iniquityH5771.
Then saidH559 I, WoeH188 is me! for I am undoneH1820; because I am a manH376 of uncleanH2931 lipsH8193, and I dwellH3427 in the midstH8432 of a peopleH5971 of uncleanH2931 lipsH8193: for mine eyesH5869 have seenH7200 the KingH4428, the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635. {undone: Heb. cut off}
Let us draw nearG4334 withG3326 a trueG228 heartG2588 inG1722 full assuranceG4136 of faithG4102, havingG4472 our heartsG2588 sprinkledG4472 fromG575 an evilG4190 conscienceG4893, andG2532 our bodiesG4983 washedG3068 with pureG2513 waterG5204.
AfterG3326 thisG5023 I beheldG1492, andG2532, loG2400, a greatG4183 multitudeG3793, whichG3739 no manG3762 couldG1410 numberG705+G846, ofG1537 allG3956 nationsG1484, andG2532 kindredsG5443, andG2532 peopleG2992, andG2532 tonguesG1100, stoodG2476 beforeG1799 the throneG2362, andG2532 beforeG1799 the LambG721, clothedG4016 with whiteG3022 robesG4749, andG2532 palmsG5404 inG1722 theirG846 handsG5495;
ThatG2443 he might presentG3936 itG846 to himselfG1438 a gloriousG1741 churchG1577, notG3361 havingG2192 spotG4696, orG2228 wrinkleG4512, orG2228 anyG5100 such thingG5108; butG235 thatG2443 it should beG5600 holyG40 andG2532 without blemishG299.
AndG2532 JesusG2424, when he was baptizedG907, went upG305 straightwayG2117 out ofG575 the waterG5204: andG2532, loG2400, the heavensG3772 were openedG455 unto himG846, andG2532 he sawG1492 the SpiritG4151 of GodG2316 descendingG2597 likeG5616 a doveG4058, andG2532 lightingG2064 uponG1909 himG846:
O LordH136, righteousnessH6666 belongeth unto thee, but unto us confusionH1322 of facesH6440, as at this dayH3117; to the menH376 of JudahH3063, and to the inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389, and unto all IsraelH3478, that are nearH7138, and that are far offH7350, through all the countriesH776 whither thou hast drivenH5080 them, because of their trespassH4604 that they have trespassedH4603 against thee. {belongeth…: or, thou hast}
AndG2532 criedG2896 with a loudG3173 voiceG5456, sayingG3004, SalvationG4991 to ourG2257 GodG2316 whichG3588 sittethG2521 uponG1909 the throneG2362, andG2532 unto the LambG721.
InG1722 the bodyG4983 of hisG846 fleshG4561 throughG1223 deathG2288, to presentG3936 youG5209 holyG40 andG2532 unblameableG299 andG2532 unreproveableG410 in hisG846 sightG2714:
BeholdG2400, IG1473 sendG649 youG5209 forthG649 asG5613 sheepG4263 inG1722 the midstG3319 of wolvesG3074: be yeG1096 thereforeG3767 wiseG5429 asG5613 serpentsG3789, andG2532 harmlessG185 asG5613 dovesG4058. {harmless: or, simple}
AndG1161 when the womanG1135 sawG1492 thatG3754 she wasG2990 notG3756 hidG2990, she cameG2064 tremblingG5141, andG2532 falling down beforeG4363 himG846, she declaredG518 unto himG846 beforeG1799 allG3956 the peopleG2992 forG1223 whatG3739 causeG156 she had touchedG680 himG846, andG2532 howG5613 she was healedG2390 immediatelyG3916.
ButG235 let it be the hiddenG2927 manG444 of the heartG2588, inG1722 that which is not corruptibleG862, even the ornament of a meekG4239 andG2532 quietG2272 spiritG4151, whichG3739 isG2076 in the sightG1799 of GodG2316 of great priceG4185.
