O thatH5414 thou wert as my brotherH251, that suckedH3243 the breastsH7699 of my motherH517! when I should findH4672 thee withoutH2351, I would kissH5401 thee; yea, I should not be despisedH936. {I should not…: Heb. they should not despise me}
I would leadH5090 thee, and bringH935 thee into my mother'sH517 houseH1004, who would instructH3925 me: I would cause thee to drinkH8248 of spicedH7544 wineH3196 of the juiceH6071 of my pomegranateH7416.
His left handH8040 should be under my headH7218, and his right handH3225 should embraceH2263 me.
I chargeH7650 you, O daughtersH1323 of JerusalemH3389, that ye stir not upH5782, nor awakeH5782 my loveH160, until he pleaseH2654. {that…: Heb. why should ye stir up, or, why, etc}
Who is this that cometh upH5927 from the wildernessH4057, leaningH7514 upon her belovedH1730? I raisedH5782 thee up under the apple treeH8598: there thy motherH517 brought thee forthH2254: there she brought thee forthH2254 that bareH3205 thee.
SetH7760 me as a sealH2368 upon thine heartH3820, as a sealH2368 upon thine armH2220: for loveH160 is strongH5794 as deathH4194; jealousyH7068 is cruelH7186 as the graveH7585: the coalsH7565 thereof are coalsH7565 of fireH784, which hath a most vehement flameH7957. {cruel: Heb. hard}
ManyH7227 watersH4325 cannotH3201 quenchH3518 loveH160, neither can the floodsH5104 drownH7857 it: if a manH376 would giveH5414 all the substanceH1952 of his houseH1004 for loveH160, it would utterlyH936 be contemnedH936.
We have a littleH6996 sisterH269, and she hath no breastsH7699: what shall we doH6213 for our sisterH269 in the dayH3117 when she shall be spoken forH1696?
If she be a wallH2346, we will buildH1129 upon her a palaceH2918 of silverH3701: and if she be a doorH1817, we will incloseH6696 her with boardsH3871 of cedarH730.
I am a wallH2346, and my breastsH7699 like towersH4026: then was I in his eyesH5869 as one that foundH4672 favourH7965. {favour: Heb. peace}
SolomonH8010 had a vineyardH3754 at BaalhamonH1174; he let outH5414 the vineyardH3754 unto keepersH5201; every oneH376 for the fruitH6529 thereof was to bringH935 a thousandH505 pieces of silverH3701.
My vineyardH3754, which is mine, is beforeH6440 me: thou, O SolomonH8010, must have a thousandH505, and those that keepH5201 the fruitH6529 thereof two hundredH3967.
Thou that dwellestH3427 in the gardensH1588, the companionsH2270 hearkenH7181 to thy voiceH6963: cause me to hearH8085 it.
Make hasteH1272, my belovedH1730, and be thou likeH1819 to a roeH6643 or to a youngH6082 hartH354 upon the mountainsH2022 of spicesH1314. {Make…: Heb. Flee away}
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}
Therefore will he give them upH5414, until the timeH6256 that she which travailethH3205 hath brought forthH3205: then the remnantH3499 of his brethrenH251 shall returnH7725 unto the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478.
LookH7200 not upon me, because I am blackH7840, because the sunH8121 hath lookedH7805 upon me: my mother'sH517 childrenH1121 were angryH2787 with me; they madeH7760 me the keeperH5201 of the vineyardsH3754; but mine own vineyardH3754 have I not keptH5201.
The songH7892 of songsH7892, which is Solomon'sH8010.
Let him kissH5401 me with the kissesH5390 of his mouthH6310: for thy loveH1730 is betterH2896 than wineH3196. {thy…: Heb. thy loves}
Because of the savourH7381 of thy goodH2896 ointmentsH8081 thy nameH8034 is as ointmentH8081 poured forthH7324, therefore do the virginsH5959 loveH157 thee.
DrawH4900 me, we will runH7323 afterH310 thee: the kingH4428 hath broughtH935 me into his chambersH2315: we will be gladH1523 and rejoiceH8055 in thee, we will rememberH2142 thy loveH1730 more than wineH3196: the uprightH4339 loveH157 thee. {the upright…: or, they love thee uprightly}
I am blackH7838, but comelyH5000, O ye daughtersH1323 of JerusalemH3389, as the tentsH168 of KedarH6938, as the curtainsH3407 of SolomonH8010.
LookH7200 not upon me, because I am blackH7840, because the sunH8121 hath lookedH7805 upon me: my mother'sH517 childrenH1121 were angryH2787 with me; they madeH7760 me the keeperH5201 of the vineyardsH3754; but mine own vineyardH3754 have I not keptH5201.
TellH5046 me, O thou whom my soulH5315 lovethH157, where thou feedestH7462, whereH349 thou makest thy flock to restH7257 at noonH6672: forH4100 why should I be as one that turneth asideH5844 by the flocksH5739 of thy companionsH2270? {as one…: or, as one that is veiled}
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.
I have comparedH1819 thee, O my loveH7474, to a company of horsesH5484 in Pharaoh'sH6547 chariotsH7393.
Thy cheeksH3895 are comelyH4998 with rowsH8447 of jewels, thy neckH6677 with chainsH2737 of gold.
We will makeH6213 thee bordersH8447 of goldH2091 with studsH5351 of silverH3701.
While the kingH4428 sitteth at his tableH4524, my spikenardH5373 sendeth forthH5414 the smellH7381 thereof.
A bundleH6872 of myrrhH4753 is my wellbelovedH1730 unto me; he shall lieH3885 all night betwixt my breastsH7699.
My belovedH1730 is unto me as a clusterH811 of camphireH3724 in the vineyardsH3754 of EngediH5872. {camphire: or, cypress}
The songH7892 of songsH7892, which is Solomon'sH8010.
