6 Yerushalem’s young women

6Where did he go, your dearest, most beautiful woman among women?

Where did he turn, your dearest—let us join you in looking for him.

The bride

2My dearest went down to his garden, to the beds of spices,

in order to graze in the gardens and in order to gather lilies.

3I belong to my dearest, and my dearest belongs to me.

He grazes among the lilies.

6:4The fifth song

The groom

4You are beautiful, my darling, like Tirtsah,

lovely like Yerushalem,

awe-inspiring like armies marching with banners.

5Turn your eyes away from me, because they excite me.

Your hair is like a flock of goats that hop down from Mt. Gilead.

6Your teeth are like a flock of ewes that have come up from the washing,

all of which have twin lambs and none of them have died.

7Your cheeks are lLike a slice of a pomegranate

from behind your veil.

8He has sixty queens, and eighty concubines,

and young women without number.

9She’s special, my dove, my perfect one.

She’s special to her mother—perfect to the woman who bore her.

The young women saw her and called her blessed.

The queens and the concubines praised her:


10“Who is that, the woman who looks down like the dawn,

beautiful like the moon,

pure like the sun,

awe-inspiring like armies marching with banners?”

11I went down to the nut tree garden to look at the green shoots of the valley

to see if the grapevine had budded?

Had the pomegranates bloomed?

12Before I realized it,

my desire had put me among my people’s chariots, a noble.

Yerushalem’s young women

13Return, return, woman from Shulam.

Return, return and let us look at you.

The bride

Why do you look at the Shulammite

like the dance of two armies?
