LITV - Song of Solomon - 4

4:1  Behold, you are beautiful, My love. Behold, you are beautiful; your eyes are as doves' from behind your veil. Your hair is like a flock of goats which lie down from Mount Gilead.

4:2  Your teeth are like a flock of shorn sheep which come up from the washing place; of which they all are bearing twins; and barrenness is not among them.

4:3  Your lips are like a cord of scarlet, and your speech is becoming; your temples are like a piece of pomegranate behind your veil.

4:4  Your neck is like the tower of David, built for an armory; a thousand bucklers hang on it, all the shields of the mighty men.

4:5  Your two breasts are like two fawns, twins of a gazelle, feeding among the lilies.

4:6  Until when the day blows, and the shadows flee away, I myself will go to the mountain of myrrh, and to the hills of frankincense.

4:7  You are all beautiful, My love. There is no blemish on you.

4:8  Come with Me from Lebanon, My spouse; with Me from Lebanon. Look from the top of Amana, from the top of Shenir and Hermon, from the lions' dens, from the mountains of the leopards.

4:9  You have ravished My heart, My sister, My spouse; you have ravished My heart with one of your eyes, with one chain of your neck.

4:10  How beautiful are your loves, My sister, My spouse! How much better are your loves than wine, and the scent of your ointments than all spices!

4:11  Your lips, My spouse, drip like the honeycomb; honey and milk are under your tongue. And the scent of your garments is like the scent of Lebanon.

4:12  A locked garden is My sister, My spouse; a rock heap locked up, a sealed fountain.

4:13  Your plants are an orchard of pomegranates with excellent fruits, with henna and spikenard;

4:14  spikenard and saffron, calamus and cinnamon; with all trees of frankincense, myrrh and aloes; with all the chief balsam spices;

4:15  a fountain of gardens, a well of living waters; even flowings from Lebanon.

4:16  Awake, north wind ; yea, come, south wind ; blow on my garden; let its spices flow out. Let my Beloved come into His garden and eat its excellent fruits.
