CHAP. I.
1 The church's love to Christ. 5 She confesseth
her deformity, 7 and prayeth to be directed
to his flock. 8 Christ directeth her to the
shepherd's tents: 9 and showing his love to
her, 11 giveth her gracious promises. 12
The church and Christ congratulate one
another.
1 The song of songs, which is Solomon's.
2 Let him kiss me with the kisses of
his mouth: note for note thy love is better than
wine.
3 Because of the savor of thy good
ointments thy name is as ointment poured
forth, therefore do the virgins love thee.
4 noteDraw me, we will run after thee:
the king hath brought me into his chambers;
we will be glad and rejoice in thee,
we will remember thy love more than
wine: note the upright love thee.
5 I am black, but comely, O ye daughters
of Jerusalem, as the tents of Kedar,
as the curtains of Solomon.
-- --
Before CHRIST, 1014.
6 Look not upon me, because I am
black, because the sun hath looked upon
me: my mother's children were angry
with me; they made me the keeper of
the vineyards; but my own vineyard
have I not kept.
7 Tell me, O thou whom my soul loveth,
where thou feedest, where thou
makest thy flock to rest at noon: for why
should I be note as one that turneth aside by
the flocks of thy companions?
8 ¶2; If thou knowest not, O thou fairest
among women, go forth by the footsteps
of the flock, and feed thy kids beside the
shepherds tents.
9 I have compared thee, O my love, to
a company of horses in Pharaoh's chariots.
10 Thy cheeks are comely with rows
of jewels, thy neck with chains of gold.
11 We will make for thee borders of
gold with studs of silver.
12 ¶2; While the king sitteth at his table,
my spikenard sendeth forth its smell.
13 A bundle of myrrh is my well beloved
to me; he shall lie all night betwixt
my breasts.
14 My beloved is to me as a cluster of
note camphor in the vineyards of En-gedi.
15 noteBehold, thou art fair, note my love;
behold, thou art fair; thou hast doves'
eyes.
16 Behold, thou art fair, my beloved,
yes, pleasant: also our bed is green.
17 The beams of our house are cedar,
and our note rafters of fir.
