KJB-1611 SNG Chapter 6

0 1 The Church professeth her faith in Christ. 4 Christ sheweth the graces of the Church, 10 and his loue towards her. VI ¶ Whither is thy beloued gone? O thou fairest among women, whither is thy beloued turned aside? that we may seeke him with thee. 2 My beloued is gone downe into his garden, to the beds of spices, to feede in the gardens, and to gather lillies. 3 [fn]I am my beloueds, & my beloued is mine: he feedeth among the lillies. 4 ¶ Thou art beautifull, O my loue, as Tirzah, comely as Ierusalem, terrible as an armie with banners. 5 [fn][fn]Turne away thine eyes from me, for they haue ouercome me: thy haire is a flocke of goates, that appeare from Gilead. 6 Thy teeth are as a flocke of sheepe which goe vp from the washing, wherof euery one beareth twinnes, and there is not one barren among them. 7 As a piece of a pomegranat are thy temples within thy lockes. 8 There are threescore Queenes, and fourescore concubines, and virgins without number. 9 My doue, my vndefiled is but one; she is the only one of her mother, she is the choice one of her that bare her: The daughters sawe her, and blessed her; yea the Queenes and the concubins, and they praysed her. 10 ¶ Who is she that looketh forth as the morning, faire as the moone, cleare as the sunne, and terrible as an armie with banners? 11 I went downe into the garden of nuts to see the fruits of the valley, and to see whether the vine flourished, and the pomegranats budded. 12 [fn][fn]Or euer I was aware, my soule made me like the chariots of Amminadib. 13 [fn]Returne, returne, O Shulamite; returne, returne, that we may looke vpon thee: what will yee see in the Shulamite? as it were the company of two armies.
