uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / simile

רֹאשֵׁ֤⁠ךְ עָלַ֨יִ⁠ךְ֙ כַּ⁠כַּרְמֶ֔ל

(Some words not found in UHB: neck_of,your like,tower_of the,ivory eyes_of,your pools in/on/at/with,Heshbon on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in gate_of daughter_of -rabim nose_of,your like,tower_of the,Lebanon looking face/surface_of Dammeseq )

The man is saying that the woman’s head is beautiful and majestic like Mount Carmel and it increases the beauty of the rest of her body. Mount Carmel is a beautiful and majestic looking mountain and adds beauty to what is below it. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could state that explicitly. Alternate translation: [Your head is beautiful and majestic like Mount Carmel]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

כַּ⁠כַּרְמֶ֔ל

(Some words not found in UHB: neck_of,your like,tower_of the,ivory eyes_of,your pools in/on/at/with,Heshbon on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in gate_of daughter_of -rabim nose_of,your like,tower_of the,Lebanon looking face/surface_of Dammeseq )

Carmel refers to the mountain called Mount Carmel. You could include this information if it would be helpful to your readers.

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / simile

וְ⁠דַלַּ֥ת רֹאשֵׁ֖⁠ךְ כָּ⁠אַרְגָּמָ֑ן

(Some words not found in UHB: neck_of,your like,tower_of the,ivory eyes_of,your pools in/on/at/with,Heshbon on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in gate_of daughter_of -rabim nose_of,your like,tower_of the,Lebanon looking face/surface_of Dammeseq )

Here the word purple refers to wool cloth that was dyed a purple-red color. The phrase the loose hair of your head is like purple could mean: (1) that the woman’s hair was a shiny black that reflected a black-purplish color in sunlight. Alternate translation: [and the loose hair of your head is shiny and black] or [and the loose hair of your head looks shiny purplish black as the sun shines on it] (2) that the woman’s hair made her look like a queen (purple was associated with royalty). Alternate translation: [and the loose hair of your head is like royal cloth]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

מֶ֖לֶךְ אָס֥וּר בָּ⁠רְהָטִֽים

(Some words not found in UHB: neck_of,your like,tower_of the,ivory eyes_of,your pools in/on/at/with,Heshbon on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in gate_of daughter_of -rabim nose_of,your like,tower_of the,Lebanon looking face/surface_of Dammeseq )

The man is speaking of the beauty of the tresses of the woman’s hair as if they could capture a king because the woman’s tresses are so beautiful that they captivate his attention. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [Your tresses are so beautiful that a king is not able to stop admiring them] or [Your hair is so beautiful that a king is not able to stop admiring it] or [the king is captivated by your tresses]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

מֶ֖לֶךְ אָס֥וּר

(Some words not found in UHB: neck_of,your like,tower_of the,ivory eyes_of,your pools in/on/at/with,Heshbon on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in gate_of daughter_of -rabim nose_of,your like,tower_of the,Lebanon looking face/surface_of Dammeseq )

The implication is that the man speaking here is the king. You could include this information if it would be helpful to your readers. Alternate translation: [your king is held captive] or [I, your king, am held captive]

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

מֶ֖לֶךְ אָס֥וּר בָּ⁠רְהָטִֽים

(Some words not found in UHB: neck_of,your like,tower_of the,ivory eyes_of,your pools in/on/at/with,Heshbon on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in gate_of daughter_of -rabim nose_of,your like,tower_of the,Lebanon looking face/surface_of Dammeseq )

If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. If you must state who did the action, the context implies that the woman’s tresses did it. Alternate translation: [the tresses hold the king captive] or [your tresses hold the king captive]

Note 7 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

בָּ⁠רְהָטִֽים

(Some words not found in UHB: neck_of,your like,tower_of the,ivory eyes_of,your pools in/on/at/with,Heshbon on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in gate_of daughter_of -rabim nose_of,your like,tower_of the,Lebanon looking face/surface_of Dammeseq )

Here the writer assumes his readers will understand that tresses refers to the woman’s hair which hangs down from her head. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could include this information. Alternate translation: [in the long locks of your hair] or [in the flowing locks of your hair]

TSN Tyndale Study Notes:

7:1-5 The man now praises the woman’s dancing feet and then ascends her sensuous body to her flowing hair (7:1-5).
• This queenly maiden (literally prince’s daughter) might or might not be from a royal family, but the man considers her as fine as royalty.

7:5 Note: KJB: Song.7.4

OET (OET-RV)Your head crowns you like Mt. Carmel,
 ⇔ and the loose hair of your head is like purple robes
 ⇔ a king is held captive in their tresses.

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.

Acknowledgements: The Hebrew text, lemmas, and morphology are all thanks to the OSHB and some of the glosses are from Macula Hebrew.
