Parallel SNG 8:7

---

BSB Mighty waters cannot quench love;
⇔ rivers cannot sweep it away.
 ⇔ If a man were to give all the wealth of his house for love,
⇔ his offer would be utterly scorned.

OEB No waters can quench it,
⇔ Nor floods overwhelm it.
 ⇔ If a man should give all in his house for it,
⇔ Utterly scorned would he be.

WEB Many waters can’t quench love,
⇔ neither can floods drown it.
 ⇔ If a man would give all the wealth of his house for love,
⇔ he would be utterly scorned.

NET Surging waters cannot quench love;
 ⇔ floodwaters cannot overflow it.
 ⇔ If someone were to offer all his possessions to buy love,
 ⇔ the offer would be utterly despised.

LSV Many waters are not able to quench the love,
And floods do not wash it away. If one gives all the wealth of his house for love,
Treading down—they tread on it.

FBV Floods of water cannot extinguish love; rivers cannot submerge it. If a man offered everything he owned in order to buy love he would be completely rejected.

T4T Nothing can extinguish our love for each other,
⇔ not even a flood.
 ⇔ If a man tried to cause a woman to love him by saying he would give her everything that is in his house,
⇔ she would refuse.
