The Song of Songs 1

1This is King Solomon’s most beautiful song.

The

2I wish he would kiss me on my lips,

The

because how you love me is more delightful than wine.

3The fragrance of the perfume on your skin is very pleasing.

And more and more people are honoring you,

just as the fragrance of the special oil that you have put on your skin is spreading farther and farther.

That is why the other young women are attracted to you.

4Take me quickly;

take me to your home.

The

He is like a king to me;

I desire him to bring me into his bedroom.

A

We are very happy about you;

we say that how you love is better than wine.

It is not surprising that the other young women adore you.

The

5You young women of Jerusalem,

I am brown but beautiful;

my dark skin is like the tents in Kedar,

and I am beautiful like the curtains in Solomon’s palace.

6But do not stare at me because the sun has made my skin dark;

my brothers were angry with me,

so they forced me to work outside in the sunshine in the vineyards,

so I was not able to take good care of my skin.

The

7You whom I love, where will you take your flock of sheep today?

Where will you allow them to rest at noontime?

I want to know because it is not right for me to wander around like a prostitute

looking for you among the flocks that belong to your friends.

Her

8You who are the most beautiful of all the women,

if you search for me and do not know where I will take my sheep,

follow the tracks of the sheep.

Then allow your young goats to eat grass near the shepherds’ tents.

9You are beautiful, my dear one, like one of the young female horses

that pull the chariots belonging to the king of Egypt.

10Your cheeks are lovely with jewelry,

and your neck is lovely with strings of beads around it.

11We will make for you some gold earrings

that are inlaid with silver.

The

12During the time that he who is like a king to me was on his couch,

the smell of my perfume spread around the room.

13The man who I love stays between my breasts during the night like a bag of sweet smelling perfume tied around my neck.

14The man who I love is like a bunch of the fragrant flowers that are in the grape farms of the city of En Gedi.

Her

15My dear one, you are beautiful;

you are very beautiful!

Your eyes are as gentle and beautiful as doves.

The

16You who I love, you are very good looking,

you are delightful!

The green grass will be like a bed where we lie down.

17Branches of cedar trees will shade us;

branches of pine trees will be like a roof over our heads.
