The Song of Solomon 7

Text size

1 How beautiful are thy feet with shoes O rince’s daughter the joints of thy thighs are like jewels the work of the hands of a cunning workman ⚑

2 Thy navel is like a round goblet which wanteth not liquor thy belly is like an heap of wheat set about with lilies ⚑

3 Thy two breasts are like two young roes that are twins ⚑

4 Thy neck is as a tower of ivory thine eyes like the fishpools in Heshbon by the gate of Bath-rabbim thy nose is as the tower of Lebanon which looketh toward Damascus ⚑

5 Thine head upon thee is like Carmel and the hair of thine head like purple the king is held in the galleries ⚑

6 How fair and how pleasant art thou O love for delights ⚑

7 This thy stature is like to a palm tree and thy breasts to clusters of grapes ⚑

8 I said I will go up to the palm tree I will take hold of the boughs thereof now also thy breasts shall be as clusters of the vine and the smell of thy nose like apples ⚑

9 And the roof of thy mouth like the best wine for my beloved that goeth down sweetly causing the lips of those that are asleep to speak ⚑

10 I am my loved’s and his desire is toward me ⚑

11 Come my beloved let us go forth into the field let us lodge in the villages ⚑

12 Let us get up early to the vineyards let us see if the vine flourish whether the tender grape appear and the pomegranates bud forth there will I give thee my loves ⚑

13 The mandrakes give a smell and at our gates are all manner of pleasant fruits new and old which I have laid up for thee O my beloved ⚑
