# Chapter 1
|
||||
1 The Song of Songs, which is Solomon’s.
|
||||
2 Oh, that he would kiss me with the kisses of his mouth!
|
||||
For your caresses are more delightful than wine.
|
||||
3 The fragrance of your perfume is intoxicating;
|
||||
your name is perfume poured out.
|
||||
No wonder young women adore you.
|
||||
4 Take me with you—let’s hurry.
|
||||
Oh, that the king would bring me to his chambers.
|
||||
We will rejoice and be glad in you;
|
||||
we will celebrate your caresses more than wine.
|
||||
It is only right that they adore you.
|
||||
5 Daughters of Jerusalem,
|
||||
I am dark like the tents of Kedar,
|
||||
yet lovely like the curtains of Solomon.
|
||||
6 Do not stare at me because I am dark,
|
||||
for the sun has gazed on me.
|
||||
My mother’s sons were angry with me;
|
||||
they made me take care of the vineyards.
|
||||
I have not taken care of my own vineyard.
|
||||
7 Tell me, you whom I love:
|
||||
Where do you pasture your sheep?
|
||||
Where do you let them rest at noon?
|
||||
Why should I be like one who veils herself
|
||||
beside the flocks of your companions?
|
||||
8 If you do not know,
|
||||
most beautiful of women,
|
||||
follow the tracks of the flock,
|
||||
and pasture your young goats
|
||||
near the shepherds’ tents.
|
||||
9 I compare you, my darling,
|
||||
to a mare among Pharaoh’s chariots.
|
||||
10 Your cheeks are beautiful with jewelry,
|
||||
your neck with its necklace.
|
||||
11 We will make gold jewelry for you,
|
||||
accented with silver.
|
||||
12 While the king is on his couch,
|
||||
my perfume releases its fragrance.
|
||||
13 The one I love is a sachet of myrrh to me,
|
||||
spending the night between my breasts.
|
||||
14 The one I love is a cluster of henna blossoms to me,
|
||||
in the vineyards of En-gedi.
|
||||
15 How beautiful you are, my darling.
|
||||
How very beautiful!
|
||||
Your eyes are doves.
|
||||
16 How handsome you are, my love.
|
||||
How delightful!
|
||||
Our bed is verdant;
|
||||
17 the beams of our house are cedars,
|
||||
and our rafters are cypresses.

# Chapter 2
|
||||
1 I am a wildflower of Sharon,
|
||||
a lily of the valleys.
|
||||
2 Like a lily among thorns,
|
||||
so is my darling among the young women.
|
||||
3 Like an apricot tree among the trees of the forest,
|
||||
so is my love among the young men.
|
||||
I delight to sit in his shade,
|
||||
and his fruit is sweet to my taste.
|
||||
4 He brought me to the banquet hall,
|
||||
and he looked on me with love.
|
||||
5 Sustain me with raisins;
|
||||
refresh me with apricots,
|
||||
for I am lovesick.
|
||||
6 May his left hand be under my head,
|
||||
and his right arm embrace me.
|
||||
7 Young women of Jerusalem, I charge you
|
||||
by the gazelles and the wild does of the field,
|
||||
do not stir up or awaken love
|
||||
until the appropriate time.
|
||||
8 Listen! My love is approaching.
|
||||
Look! Here he comes,
|
||||
leaping over the mountains,
|
||||
bounding over the hills.
|
||||
9 My love is like a gazelle
|
||||
or a young stag.
|
||||
See, he is standing behind our wall,
|
||||
gazing through the windows,
|
||||
peering through the lattice.
|
||||
10 My love calls to me:
|
||||
Arise, my darling.
|
||||
Come away, my beautiful one.
|
||||
11 For now the winter is past;
|
||||
the rain has ended and gone away.
|
||||
12 The blossoms appear in the countryside.
|
||||
The time of singing has come,
|
||||
and the turtledove’s cooing is heard in our land.
|
||||
13 The fig tree ripens its figs;
|
||||
the blossoming vines give off their fragrance.
|
||||
Arise, my darling.
|
||||
Come away, my beautiful one.
|
||||
14 My dove, in the clefts of the rock,
|
||||
in the crevices of the cliff,
|
||||
let me see your face,
|
||||
let me hear your voice;
|
||||
for your voice is sweet,
|
||||
and your face is lovely.
|
||||
15 Catch the foxes for us—
|
||||
the little foxes that ruin the vineyards—
|
||||
for our vineyards are in bloom.
|
||||
16 My love is mine and I am his;
|
||||
he feeds among the lilies.
|
||||
17 Until the day breaks
|
||||
and the shadows flee,
|
||||
turn around, my love, and be like a gazelle
|
||||
or a young stag on the divided mountains.

# Chapter 3
|
||||
1 In my bed at night
|
||||
I sought the one I love;
|
||||
I sought him, but did not find him.
|
||||
2 I will arise now and go about the city,
|
||||
through the streets and the plazas.
|
||||
I will seek the one I love.
|
||||
I sought him, but did not find him.
|
||||
3 The guards who go about the city found me.
|
||||
I asked them, “Have you seen the one I love?”
|
||||
4 I had just passed them
|
||||
when I found the one I love.
|
||||
I held on to him and would not let him go
|
||||
until I brought him to my mother’s house—
|
||||
to the chamber of the one who conceived me.
|
||||
5 Young women of Jerusalem, I charge you
|
||||
by the gazelles and the wild does of the field,
|
||||
do not stir up or awaken love
|
||||
until the appropriate time.
|
||||
6 Who is this coming up from the wilderness
|
||||
like columns of smoke,
|
||||
scented with myrrh and frankincense
|
||||
from every fragrant powder of the merchant?
|
||||
7 Look! Solomon’s bed
|
||||
surrounded by sixty warriors
|
||||
from the mighty men of Israel.
|
||||
8 All of them are skilled with swords
|
||||
and trained in warfare.
|
||||
Each has his sword at his side
|
||||
to guard against the terror of the night.
|
||||
9 King Solomon made a carriage for himself
|
||||
with wood from Lebanon.
|
||||
10 He made its posts of silver,
|
||||
its back of gold,
|
||||
and its seat of purple.
|
||||
Its interior is inlaid with love
|
||||
by the young women of Jerusalem.
|
||||
11 Go out, young women of Zion,
|
||||
and gaze at King Solomon,
|
||||
wearing the crown his mother placed on him
|
||||
on the day of his wedding—
|
||||
the day of his heart’s rejoicing.

# Chapter 4
|
||||
1 How beautiful you are, my darling.
|
||||
How very beautiful!
|
||||
Behind your veil,
|
||||
your eyes are doves.
|
||||
Your hair is like a flock of goats
|
||||
streaming down Mount Gilead.
|
||||
2 Your teeth are like a flock of newly shorn sheep
|
||||
coming up from washing,
|
||||
each one bearing twins,
|
||||
and none has lost its young.
|
||||
3 Your lips are like a scarlet cord,
|
||||
and your mouth is lovely.
|
||||
Behind your veil,
|
||||
your brow is like a slice of pomegranate.
|
||||
4 Your neck is like the tower of David,
|
||||
constructed in layers.
|
||||
A thousand shields are hung on it—
|
||||
all of them shields of warriors.
|
||||
5 Your breasts are like two fawns,
|
||||
twins of a gazelle, that feed among the lilies.
|
||||
6 Until the day breaks
|
||||
and the shadows flee,
|
||||
I will make my way to the mountain of myrrh
|
||||
and the hill of frankincense.
|
||||
7 You are absolutely beautiful, my darling;
|
||||
there is no imperfection in you.
|
||||
8 Come with me from Lebanon, my bride;
|
||||
come with me from Lebanon!
|
||||
Descend from the peak of Amana,
|
||||
from the summit of Senir and Hermon,
|
||||
from the dens of the lions,
|
||||
from the mountains of the leopards.
|
||||
9 You have captured my heart, my sister, my bride.
|
||||
You have captured my heart with one glance of your eyes,
|
||||
with one jewel of your necklace.
|
||||
10 How delightful your caresses are, my sister, my bride.
|
||||
Your caresses are much better than wine,
|
||||
and the fragrance of your perfume than any balsam.
|
||||
11 Your lips drip sweetness like the honeycomb, my bride.
|
||||
Honey and milk are under your tongue.
|
||||
The fragrance of your garments is like the fragrance of Lebanon.
|
||||
12 My sister, my bride, you are a locked garden—
|
||||
a locked garden and a sealed spring.
|
||||
13 Your branches are a paradise of pomegranates
|
||||
with choicest fruits;
|
||||
henna with nard,
|
||||
14 nard and saffron, calamus and cinnamon,
|
||||
with all the trees of frankincense,
|
||||
myrrh and aloes,
|
||||
with all the best spices.
|
||||
15 You are a garden spring,
|
||||
a well of flowing water
|
||||
streaming from Lebanon.
|
||||
16 Awaken, north wind;
|
||||
come, south wind.
|
||||
Blow on my garden,
|
||||
and spread the fragrance of its spices.
|
||||
Let my love come to his garden
|
||||
and eat its choicest fruits.

# Chapter 5
|
||||
1 I have come to my garden—my sister, my bride.
|
||||
I gather my myrrh with my spices.
|
||||
I eat my honeycomb with my honey.
|
||||
I drink my wine with my milk.
|
||||
Eat, friends!
|
||||
Drink, be intoxicated with caresses!
|
||||
2 I was sleeping, but my heart was awake.
|
||||
A sound! My love was knocking!
|
||||
Open to me, my sister, my darling,
|
||||
my dove, my perfect one.
|
||||
For my head is drenched with dew,
|
||||
my hair with droplets of the night.
|
||||
3 I have taken off my clothing.
|
||||
How can I put it back on?
|
||||
I have washed my feet.
|
||||
How can I get them dirty?
|
||||
4 My love thrust his hand through the opening,
|
||||
and my feelings were stirred for him.
|
||||
5 I rose to open for my love.
|
||||
My hands dripped with myrrh,
|
||||
my fingers with flowing myrrh
|
||||
on the handles of the bolt.
|
||||
6 I opened to my love,
|
||||
but my love had turned and gone away.
|
||||
My heart sank because he had left.
|
||||
I sought him, but did not find him.
|
||||
I called him, but he did not answer.
|
||||
7 The guards who go about the city found me.
|
||||
They beat and wounded me;
|
||||
they took my cloak from me—
|
||||
the guardians of the walls.
|
||||
8 Young women of Jerusalem, I charge you,
|
||||
if you find my love,
|
||||
tell him that I am lovesick.
|
||||
9 What makes the one you love better than another,
|
||||
most beautiful of women?
|
||||
What makes him better than another,
|
||||
that you would give us this charge?
|
||||
10 My love is fit and strong,
|
||||
notable among ten thousand.
|
||||
11 His head is purest gold.
|
||||
His hair is wavy
|
||||
and black as a raven.
|
||||
12 His eyes are like doves
|
||||
beside flowing streams,
|
||||
washed in milk
|
||||
and set like jewels.
|
||||
13 His cheeks are like beds of spice,
|
||||
mounds of perfume.
|
||||
His lips are lilies,
|
||||
dripping with flowing myrrh.
|
||||
14 His arms are rods of gold
|
||||
set with beryl.
|
||||
His body is an ivory panel
|
||||
covered with lapis lazuli.
|
||||
15 His legs are alabaster pillars
|
||||
set on pedestals of pure gold.
|
||||
His presence is like Lebanon,
|
||||
as majestic as the cedars.
|
||||
16 His mouth is sweetness.
|
||||
He is absolutely desirable.
|
||||
This is my love, and this is my friend,
|
||||
young women of Jerusalem.

# Chapter 6
|
||||
1 Where has your love gone,
|
||||
most beautiful of women?
|
||||
Which way has he turned?
|
||||
We will seek him with you.
|
||||
2 My love has gone down to his garden,
|
||||
to beds of spice,
|
||||
to feed in the gardens
|
||||
and gather lilies.
|
||||
3 I am my love’s and my love is mine;
|
||||
he feeds among the lilies.
|
||||
4 You are as beautiful as Tirzah, my darling,
|
||||
lovely as Jerusalem,
|
||||
awe-inspiring as an army with banners.
|
||||
5 Turn your eyes away from me,
|
||||
for they captivate me.
|
||||
Your hair is like a flock of goats
|
||||
streaming down from Gilead.
|
||||
6 Your teeth are like a flock of ewes
|
||||
coming up from washing,
|
||||
each one having a twin,
|
||||
and not one missing.
|
||||
7 Behind your veil,
|
||||
your brow is like a slice of pomegranate.
|
||||
8 There are sixty queens
|
||||
and eighty concubines
|
||||
and young women without number.
|
||||
9 But my dove, my virtuous one, is unique;
|
||||
she is the favorite of her mother,
|
||||
perfect to the one who gave her birth.
|
||||
Women see her and declare her fortunate;
|
||||
queens and concubines also, and they sing her praises:
|
||||
10 Who is this who shines like the dawn,
|
||||
as beautiful as the moon,
|
||||
bright as the sun,
|
||||
awe-inspiring as an army with banners?
|
||||
11 I came down to the walnut grove
|
||||
to see the blossoms of the valley,
|
||||
to see if the vines were budding
|
||||
and the pomegranates blooming.
|
||||
12 I didn’t know what was happening to me.
|
||||
I felt like I was
|
||||
in a chariot with a nobleman.
|
||||
13 Come back, come back, Shulammite!
|
||||
Come back, come back, that we may look at you!
|
||||
How you gaze at the Shulammite,
|
||||
as you look at the dance of the two camps!

# Chapter 7
|
||||
1 How beautiful are your sandaled feet, princess!
|
||||
The curves of your thighs are like jewelry,
|
||||
the handiwork of a master.
|
||||
2 Your navel is a rounded bowl;
|
||||
it never lacks mixed wine.
|
||||
Your belly is a mound of wheat
|
||||
surrounded by lilies.
|
||||
3 Your breasts are like two fawns,
|
||||
twins of a gazelle.
|
||||
4 Your neck is like a tower of ivory,
|
||||
your eyes like pools in Heshbon
|
||||
by Bath-rabbim’s gate.
|
||||
Your nose is like the tower of Lebanon
|
||||
looking toward Damascus.
|
||||
5 Your head crowns you like Mount Carmel,
|
||||
the hair of your head like purple cloth—
|
||||
a king could be held captive in your tresses.
|
||||
6 How beautiful you are and how pleasant,
|
||||
my love, with such delights!
|
||||
7 Your stature is like a palm tree;
|
||||
your breasts are clusters of fruit.
|
||||
8 I said, “I will climb the palm tree
|
||||
and take hold of its fruit.”
|
||||
May your breasts be like clusters of grapes,
|
||||
and the fragrance of your breath like apricots.
|
||||
9 Your mouth is like fine wine—
|
||||
flowing smoothly for my love,
|
||||
gliding past my lips and teeth!
|
||||
10 I am my love’s,
|
||||
and his desire is for me.
|
||||
11 Come, my love,
|
||||
let’s go to the field;
|
||||
let’s spend the night among the henna blossoms.
|
||||
12 Let’s go early to the vineyards;
|
||||
let’s see if the vine has budded,
|
||||
if the blossom has opened,
|
||||
if the pomegranates are in bloom.
|
||||
There I will give you my caresses.
|
||||
13 The mandrakes give off a fragrance,
|
||||
and at our doors is every delicacy,
|
||||
both new and old.
|
||||
I have treasured them up for you, my love.

# Chapter 8
|
||||
1 If only I could treat you like my brother,
|
||||
one who nursed at my mother’s breasts,
|
||||
I would find you in public and kiss you,
|
||||
and no one would scorn me.
|
||||
2 I would lead you, I would take you,
|
||||
to the house of my mother who taught me.
|
||||
I would give you spiced wine to drink
|
||||
from the juice of my pomegranate.
|
||||
3 May his left hand be under my head,
|
||||
and his right arm embrace me.
|
||||
4 Young women of Jerusalem, I charge you,
|
||||
do not stir up or awaken love
|
||||
until the appropriate time.
|
||||
5 Who is this coming up from the wilderness,
|
||||
leaning on the one she loves?
|
||||
I awakened you under the apricot tree.
|
||||
There your mother conceived you;
|
||||
there she conceived and gave you birth.
|
||||
6 Set me as a seal on your heart,
|
||||
as a seal on your arm.
|
||||
For love is as strong as death;
|
||||
jealousy is as unrelenting as Sheol.
|
||||
Love’s flames are fiery flames—
|
||||
an almighty flame!
|
||||
7 A huge torrent cannot extinguish love;
|
||||
rivers cannot sweep it away.
|
||||
If a man were to give all his wealth for love,
|
||||
it would be utterly scorned.
|
||||
8 Our sister is young;
|
||||
she has no breasts.
|
||||
What will we do for our sister
|
||||
on the day she is spoken for?
|
||||
9 If she is a wall,
|
||||
we will build a silver barricade on her.
|
||||
If she is a door,
|
||||
we will enclose her with cedar planks.
|
||||
10 I am a wall
|
||||
and my breasts like towers.
|
||||
So to him I have become
|
||||
like one who finds peace.
|
||||
11 Solomon owned a vineyard in Baal-hamon.
|
||||
He leased the vineyard to tenants.
|
||||
Each was to bring for his fruit
|
||||
one thousand pieces of silver.
|
||||
12 I have my own vineyard.
|
||||
The one thousand are for you, Solomon,
|
||||
but two hundred for those who take care of its fruits.
|
||||
13 You who dwell in the gardens,
|
||||
companions are listening for your voice;
|
||||
let me hear you!
|
||||
14 Run away with me, my love,
|
||||
and be like a gazelle
|
||||
or a young stag
|
||||
on the mountains of spices.
