O that you were as my brother,H251 that suckedH3243 the breastsH7699 of my mother!H517 when I should findH4672 you without,H2351 I would kissH5401 you; yes,H1571 I should not be despised.H937
2
I would leadH5090 you, and bringH935 you intoH413 my mother'sH517 house,H1004 who would instructH3925 me: I would cause you to drinkH8248 of spicedH7544 wineH3196 of the juiceH6071 of my pomegranate.H7416
3
His leftH8040 handH8040 should be underH8478 my head,H7218 and his rightH3225 handH3225 should embraceH2263 me.
4
I chargeH7650 you, O daughtersH1323 of Jerusalem,H3389 that you stirH5782 not up, nor awakeH5782 my love,H160 untilH5704 he please.H2654
5
WhoH4310 is thisH2063 that comesH5927 up from the wilderness,H4057 leaningH7514 on her beloved?H1730 I raisedH5782 you up underH8478 the appleH8598 tree: there your motherH517 broughtH2254 you forth:H2254 there she broughtH2254 you forthH2254 that boreH3205 you.
6
SetH7760 me as a sealH2368 on your heart,H3820 as a sealH2368 on your arm:H2220 for loveH160 is strongH5794 as death;H4194 jealousyH7068 is cruel as the grave:H7585 the coalsH7565 thereof are coalsH7565 of fire,H784 which has a most vehementH3050 flame.H7957
7
ManyH7227 watersH4325 cannotH3808 H3201 quenchH3518 love,H160 neitherH3808 can the floodsH5104 drownH7857 it: ifH518 a manH376 would giveH5414 allH3605 the substanceH1952 of his houseH1004 for love,H160 it would utterly be contemned.H936

We have a littleH6996 sister,H269 and she has noH369 breasts:H7699 whatH4100 shall we doH6213 for our sisterH269 in the dayH3117 when she shall be spokenH1696 for?
9
IfH518 she be a wall,H2346 we will buildH1129 on her a palaceH2918 of silver:H3701 and ifH518 she be a door,H1817 we will encloseH6696 her with boardsH3871 of cedar.H730
10
I am a wall,H2346 and my breastsH7699 like towers:H4026 thenH227 was I in his eyesH5869 as one that foundH4672 favor.H7965
11
SolomonH8010 had a vineyardH3754 at Baalhamon;H1174 he letH5414 out the vineyardH3754 to keepers;H5201 everyH376 oneH376 for the fruitH6529 thereof was to bringH935 a thousandH505 pieces of silver.H3701
12
My vineyard,H3754 which is mine, is beforeH6440 me: you, O Solomon,H8010 must have a thousand,H505 and those that keepH5201 the fruitH6529 thereof two hundred.H3967
13
You that dwellH3427 in the gardens,H1588 the companionsH2270 listenH7181 to your voice:H6963 cause me to hearH8085 it.
14
Make haste,H1272 my beloved,H1730 and be you likeH1819 to a roeH6643 orH176 to a youngH6082 hartH354 on the mountainsH2022 of spices.H1314
