The Nature of Genuine Romantic Love

The Nature of Genuine Romantic Love

6 Set me as a seal upon your heart, as a seal upon your arm;

for love is strong as death;
- passion is fierce as Sheol;
its flashes are flashes of fire;
- it is a blazing flame.
- 7 Many waters cannot quench love; rivers cannot sweep it away.[fn]
If a man were to give all the wealth of his house for love ,[fn]
- he would be utterly scorned.[fn]

8:? Or “and rivers cannot engulf it”

8:? Literally “in the love”

8:? Literally “they will utterly scorn him”
