Songs:8
Seeker Overlay ON
*
O that thou [
wert ]
as my brother ,
that sucked the breasts of my mother ! [
when ]
I should find thee without ,
I would kiss thee ;
and I should not be despised .
*
I would lead thee [
and ]
bring thee into my mother '
s house ,
that [
thou ]
would instruct me ;
I would cause thee to drink of spiced wine of the juice of my pomegranate .
*
His left hand [
should be ]
under my head ,
and his right hand should embrace me .
*
I charge you ,
O daughters of Jerusalem ,
that ye not awake nor stir up love until he pleases .
*
Who [
is ]
she that comes up from the wilderness ,
leaning upon her beloved ?
I woke thee up under the apple tree ;
there thy mother had [
birth ]
pains ;
there she had pains [
that ]
brought thee into the light .
*
Set me as a seal upon thine heart as a sign upon thine arm ;
for love [
is ]
strong as death ;
jealousy [
is ]
hard as Sheol ;
the coals thereof [
are ]
coals of fire , [
which have a ]
most vehement flame .
*
The many waters cannot quench love ,
neither can the rivers drown it ;
if [
a ]
man would give all the substance of his house for this love ,
it would certainly be despised .
*
We have a little sister ,
and she [
still ]
has no breasts ;
what shall we do for our sister in the day when she shall be spoken for ?
*
If she [
is ]
a wall ,
we will build upon her a palace of silver ;
and if she [
is ]
a door ,
we will inclose her with boards of cedar .
*
I [
am ]
a wall ,
and my breasts like towers since I was in his eyes as the one that found peace .
*
Solomon had a vineyard at Baalhamon ;
he let out the vineyard unto keepers ;
for its fruit each one was to bring a thousand [
pieces ]
of silver .
*
My vineyard ,
which [
is ]
mine , [
is ]
before me ;
the thousand [
pieces ]
shall be thine ,
O Solomon ,
and two hundred for those that keep the fruit .
* [
Thou ],
she that dwellest in the gardens ,
the companions hearken to thy voice ;
cause me to hear [
it ].
*
Run ,
my beloved ,
and be thou like to a roe or to a young hart upon the mountains of spices .
