mkjv@Songs:1:2 @ Let Him kiss me with the kisses of His mouth; for Your love [is] better than wine.

mkjv@Songs:1:3 @ For Your ointments have a lovely fragrance; Your name is [as] oil poured out; therefore the virgins love You.

mkjv@Songs:1:6 @ Do not look on me, that I [am] black, that the sun has looked on me. My mother's sons were angry with me; they made me the keeper of the vineyards; [but] my vineyard I have not kept.

mkjv@Songs:1:7 @ Tell me, [You] whom my soul loves, where do You feed, where do You lie down at noon? For why should I be as one who is veiled beside the flocks of Your companions?

mkjv@Songs:1:17 @ The beams of our house [are] cedar, [and] our rafters are of fir.

mkjv@Songs:2:1 @ I [am] the rose of Sharon, a lily of the valleys.

mkjv@Songs:2:2 @ As the lily among thorns, so [is] My love among the daughters.

mkjv@Songs:2:3 @ As the apple among the trees of the wood, so [is] my Beloved among the sons. I sat down under His shadow with great delight, and His fruit [was] sweet to my taste.

mkjv@Songs:2:4 @ He brought me to the banqueting house, and His banner over me [was] love.

mkjv@Songs:2:5 @ Feed me with raisin cakes, comfort me with apples, for I [am] sick [with] love.

mkjv@Songs:2:7 @ I charge you, O daughters of Jerusalem, by the gazelles, and by the does of the field, do not stir up or awake [my] Love until He please.

mkjv@Songs:2:8 @ The voice of my Beloved! Behold, He comes leaping on the mountains, skipping on the hills.

mkjv@Songs:2:9 @ My Beloved is like a roe or a young hart. Behold, [He] stands behind our wall, He looks forth at the windows, peering from the lattice.

mkjv@Songs:2:10 @ My Beloved spoke, and said to me, Rise up, My love, My beautiful one, and come away.

mkjv@Songs:2:11 @ For lo, the winter is past, the rain is over; it goes to itself.

mkjv@Songs:2:12 @ the flowers appear on the earth; the time of singing has come, and the voice of the turtle-dove is heard in our land;

mkjv@Songs:2:13 @ the fig tree puts forth her green figs, and the vines [with] the tender grape give a [good] smell. Arise, My love, My beautiful one, and come away.

mkjv@Songs:2:14 @ O My dove, in the clefts of the rock, in the secret places of the stairs, let Me see your face, let Me hear your voice; for your voice [is] sweet, and your face [is] beautiful.

mkjv@Songs:2:15 @ Take us the foxes, the little foxes that spoil the vines; for our vines [have] tender grapes.

mkjv@Songs:2:16 @ My Beloved [is] mine, and I [am] His; He feeds among the lilies.

mkjv@Songs:2:17 @ Until when does the day blow, and the shadows flee away? Turn, my Beloved, and be like a gazelle, or a young deer, the stag, on the mountains of Bether.

mkjv@Songs:3:1 @ By night on my bed I sought Him whom my soul loved; I sought [Him], but I did not find Him.

mkjv@Songs:3:2 @ I will rise now and go about the city, in the streets and in the broad ways; I will seek [Him] whom my soul loves. I sought Him, but I did not find Him.

mkjv@Songs:3:3 @ The watchmen going about the city found me. [I said], Have you seen Him whom my soul loves?

mkjv@Songs:3:4 @ But a little while after I passed from them, I found [Him] whom my soul loves. I held Him and would not let Him go, until I had brought Him into my mother's house, and into the room of her who conceived me.

mkjv@Songs:3:5 @ I charge you, O daughters of Jerusalem, by the gazelles, and by the does of the field, do not stir up nor awake [my] love until it pleases.

mkjv@Songs:3:6 @ Who [is] this coming up out of the wilderness like pillars of smoke, perfumed with myrrh and frankincense, from all the merchant's powders?

mkjv@Songs:3:7 @ Behold his bed, Solomon's! Sixty mighty men [are] around it, of Israel's mighty men.

mkjv@Songs:3:8 @ They all hold swords, instructed in war; each man has his sword on his thigh because of fear in the night.

mkjv@Songs:3:9 @ King Solomon made himself a litter-bed of Lebanon's trees.

mkjv@Songs:3:10 @ He made its poles [of] silver, its back gold, its seat of purple, its middle was paved [with] love by the daughters of Jerusalem.

mkjv@Songs:3:11 @ Go forth, O daughters of Zion, and behold King Solomon with the crown [with] which his mother crowned him on his wedding day, and in the day of the gladness of his heart.

mkjv@Songs:4:1 @ Behold, you [are] beautiful, My love. Behold, you [are] beautiful; your eyes [are] like doves' from behind your veil; your hair [is] like a flock of goats that appear from Mount Gilead.

mkjv@Songs:4:2 @ Your teeth [are] like a flock of shorn [sheep], which came up from the washing; they all are bearing twins and not one [is] barren among them.

mkjv@Songs:4:3 @ Your lips [are] like a cord of scarlet, and your speech [is] becoming; your temples [are] like a piece of pomegranate behind your veil.

mkjv@Songs:4:4 @ Your neck [is] like the tower of David built for an armory, on which there hang a thousand bucklers, all shields of mighty men.

mkjv@Songs:4:5 @ Your two breasts [are] like two fawns, twins of a gazelle, feeding among the lilies.

mkjv@Songs:4:6 @ Until when the day blows, and the shadows flee away, I will go to the mountain of myrrh and to the hill of frankincense.

mkjv@Songs:4:7 @ You [are] all fair, My love; no blemish [is] in you.

mkjv@Songs:4:8 @ Come with Me from Lebanon, [My] spouse; with Me from Lebanon. Look from the top of Amana, from the top of Shenir and Hermon, from the lions' dens, from the mountains of the leopards.

mkjv@Songs:4:9 @ You have ravished My heart, My sister, [My] spouse; you have ravished My heart with one of your eyes, with one chain of your neck.

mkjv@Songs:4:10 @ How fair is your love, My sister, [My] spouse! How [much] better [is] your love than wine, and the smell of your ointments than all spices!

mkjv@Songs:4:11 @ Your lips, [My] spouse, drop like the honeycomb; honey and milk [are] under your tongue; and the smell of your garments [is] like the smell of Lebanon.

mkjv@Songs:4:12 @ A locked garden [is] My sister, [My] spouse; a rock heap locked up, a fountain sealed.

mkjv@Songs:4:13 @ Your plants [are] an orchard of pomegranates, with pleasant fruits; with henna [and] spikenard,

mkjv@Songs:4:14 @ spikenard and saffron; calamus and cinnamon, with all trees of frankincense; myrrh and aloes, with all the chief spices;

mkjv@Songs:4:15 @ a fountain of gardens, a well of living waters, and streams from Lebanon.

mkjv@Songs:4:16 @ Awake, O north [wind]; and come, south [wind]; blow on my garden, so [that] the spices of it may flow out. Let my Beloved come into His garden and eat His pleasant fruits.

mkjv@Songs:5:1 @ I have come into My garden, My sister, [My] spouse; I have gathered My myrrh with My spice; I have eaten My honeycomb with My honey; I have drunk My wine with My milk. Eat, O friends; drink, yea, drink abundantly, O Beloved.

mkjv@Songs:5:2 @ I sleep, but my heart is awake. [It is] the sound of my Beloved that knocks, [saying], Open to Me, My sister, My love, My dove, My undefiled; for My head is filled with dew, My locks with the drops of the night.

mkjv@Songs:5:3 @ I have put off My coat; How shall I put it on? I have washed my feet; how shall I defile them?

mkjv@Songs:5:4 @ My Beloved put in His hand by the hole [of the door], and my heart was moved for Him.

mkjv@Songs:5:5 @ I rose up to open to my Beloved; and my hands dripped [with] myrrh, and my fingers flowing [with] myrrh on the handles of the bolt.

mkjv@Songs:5:6 @ I opened to my Beloved, but my Beloved had left. He passed on. My soul went out when He spoke; I sought Him, but I could not find Him. I called Him, but He did not answer me.

mkjv@Songs:5:7 @ The watchmen who went about the city found me [and] struck me; they wounded me. The keepers of the wall lifted my veil from me.

mkjv@Songs:5:8 @ I adjure you, O daughters of Jerusalem, if you find my Beloved, what do you tell Him? That I [am] sick [with] love.

mkjv@Songs:5:9 @ What [is] your Beloved more than [another] beloved, most beautiful among women? What [is] your Beloved more than [another] beloved, that you adjure us so?

mkjv@Songs:5:10 @ My Beloved [is] bright and ruddy, standing out among ten thousand.

mkjv@Songs:5:11 @ His head [is like] refined gold; His locks [are] bushy, black as a raven.

mkjv@Songs:5:12 @ His eyes [are] as doves' [eyes] on the rivers of waters, washed with milk, sitting on a setting.

mkjv@Songs:5:13 @ His cheeks [are] like a bed of spices, a raised bed of aromatic herbs. His lips [are as] lilies dropping flowing myrrh.

mkjv@Songs:5:14 @ His hands [are like] rings of gold filled with jewels; His body an ivory plate overlaid with sapphires.

mkjv@Songs:5:15 @ His legs [are like] pillars of marble set on sockets of fine gold; His face [is like] Lebanon, excellent as the cedars.

mkjv@Songs:5:16 @ His mouth [is] most sweet; yes, He [is] altogether lovely. This [is] my Beloved, and this [is] my Friend, O daughters of Jerusalem.

mkjv@Songs:6:1 @ Where has your Beloved gone, most beautiful among women? Where has your Beloved turned? For we seek Him along with you.

mkjv@Songs:6:2 @ My Beloved has gone down to His garden, to the beds of spices, to feed in the gardens and to gather lilies.

mkjv@Songs:6:3 @ I [am] my Beloved's, and my Beloved [is] mine; He feeds among the lilies.

mkjv@Songs:6:4 @ O my love, you [are] as beautiful as Tirzah, as lovely as Jerusalem, as inspiring as an army with banners.

mkjv@Songs:6:5 @ Turn away your eyes from Me, for they have overcome Me; your hair [is] like a flock of goats that appears from Gilead.

mkjv@Songs:6:6 @ Your teeth [are] like a flock of ewes which go up from the washing; they all [are] bearing twins, and a barren one [is] not among them.

mkjv@Songs:6:7 @ Your temples behind your veil [are] like a piece of pomegranate.

mkjv@Songs:6:8 @ There [are] sixty queens, and eighty concubines, and virgins without number.

mkjv@Songs:6:9 @ But My dove, My undefiled is one [alone]. She [is] the [only] one of her mother. She [is] the choice of her who bore her. The daughters saw [her] and blessed her; the queens and the concubines saw her, and they praised her.

mkjv@Songs:6:10 @ Who [is] she who looks forth like the morning, fair as the moon, clear as the sun, awesome [armies] with banners?

mkjv@Songs:6:11 @ I went down into the garden of nuts to see the greenery of the valley, to see whether the vine flowered [and] the pomegranates budded.

mkjv@Songs:6:12 @ I did not know, [but] my soul set me [on] the chariots of my princely people.

mkjv@Songs:6:13 @ Return, return, O Shulamite! Return, return, that we may look on you. What will you see in the Shulamite? As it were the dance of two camps.

mkjv@Songs:7:1 @ How beautiful [are] your feet in sandals, O prince's daughter! The curves of your thighs [are] like jewels, the work of the hands of a skillful workman.

mkjv@Songs:7:2 @ Your navel [is like] a round goblet, which never lacks mixed wine; your belly [is like] a heap of wheat set about with lilies.

mkjv@Songs:7:3 @ Your two breasts [are] like two fawns, twins of a gazelle.

mkjv@Songs:7:4 @ Your neck [is like] a tower of ivory; your eyes [like] the fish-pools in Heshbon, by the gate of Beth-rabbim; your nose [is like] the tower of Lebanon which looks toward Damascus.

mkjv@Songs:7:5 @ Your head on you [is like] Carmel, and the hair of your head like purple cloth; the King [is] held captive in its tresses.

mkjv@Songs:7:6 @ How beautiful and how pleasant you [are], O love, for delights!

mkjv@Songs:7:7 @ Your stature is like a palm tree, and your breasts [are] like clusters [of grapes].

mkjv@Songs:7:8 @ I said, I will go up in the palm tree, I will take hold of its stalk. And please let your breasts be like clusters of the vine, and the smell of your nose like apples;

mkjv@Songs:7:9 @ and the roof of your mouth like the best wine for my Beloved, that goes [down] smoothly for My Beloved, flowing softly [over] the lips of sleeping ones.

mkjv@Songs:7:10 @ I [am] my Beloved's, and His desire [is] toward me.

mkjv@Songs:7:11 @ Come, my Beloved, let us go out into the field; let us stay in the villages.

mkjv@Songs:7:12 @ Let us rise up early to the vineyards; let us see [if] the vine flowers, whether the tender grape appears, and the pomegranates bud forth; there I will give You my loves.

mkjv@Songs:7:13 @ The love-apples give a scent, and over our doors [are] all pleasant [fruits], new and old, which I have laid up for You, O my Beloved.

mkjv@Songs:8:1 @ Who could give You to me [as] my brother, who sucked my mother's breasts? [When] I find You outside, I would kiss You; yea, they would not despise me.

mkjv@Songs:8:2 @ I would lead You, [and] bring You into my mother's house. You would instruct me; I would cause You to drink spiced wine of the juice of my pomegranate.

mkjv@Songs:8:3 @ His left hand [would be] under my head, and His right embrace me.

mkjv@Songs:8:4 @ I charge you, O daughters of Jerusalem, why should you stir up or awaken [my] Love until it pleases?

mkjv@Songs:8:5 @ Who [is] this coming up from the wilderness, leaning on her Beloved? I awakened you under the apple tree; there your mother travailed with you; there she travailed and bore you.

mkjv@Songs:8:6 @ Set me as a seal on Your heart, as a seal on Your arm; for love [is] strong as death. Jealousy [is] cruel as the grave; its flames [are] flames of fire, a flame of Jehovah.

mkjv@Songs:8:7 @ Many waters cannot quench love, nor will the rivers overflow it. If [a] man would give all the wealth of his house for love, it would be scorned.

mkjv@Songs:8:8 @ We have a little sister, and she has no breasts; what shall we do for our sister in the day when she shall be spoken for?

mkjv@Songs:8:9 @ If she [is] a wall, we will build on her a palace of silver; and if she [is] a door, we will enclose her [with] boards of cedar.

mkjv@Songs:8:10 @ I [was] a wall, and my breasts like towers; then I was in His eyes as one finding peace.

mkjv@Songs:8:11 @ Solomon had a vineyard in Baal-hamon; he let out the vineyard to keepers; everyone for its fruit was to bring a thousand of silver.

mkjv@Songs:8:12 @ My vineyard, which [is] mine, [is] before me; you, O Solomon, must have a thousand, and for the keepers of its fruit, two hundred.

mkjv@Songs:8:13 @ You who dwell in the gardens, the companions listen to your voice; cause me to hear.

mkjv@Songs:8:14 @ Hurry, my Beloved, and be like a gazelle, or a young deer, the stag, on the mountains of spices.
