Song of Songs 1:6-14
6LookH7200 not upon me, because I am swarthy,Because the sunH8121 hath scorched me.My mother’sH517 sonsH1121 were incensed against me;They madeH7760 me keeper of the vineyardsH3754;But mine own vineyardH3754 have I not kept.7TellH5046 me, O thou whom my soulH5315 loveth,Where thou feedest thy flockH5739,Where thou makest it to rest at noonH6672:For whyH4100 should I beH1961 as one that is veiledBeside the flocksH5739 of thy companionsH2270?8If thou knowH3045 not, O thou fairest among womenH802,GoH3318 thy way forthH3318 by the footsteps of the flockH6629,And feedH7462 thy kids beside the shepherds’ tents.9I have compared thee, O my love,To a steed in Pharaoh’s chariotsH7393.10Thy cheeksH3895 are comely with plaits of hair,Thy neckH6677 with strings of jewels.11We will makeH6213 thee plaits of goldH2091With studs of silverH3701.12While the kingH4428 sat at his table,My spikenard sent forth its fragrance.13My beloved is unto me as a bundle of myrrhH4753,That lieth betwixt my breastsH7699.14My beloved is unto me as a clusterH811 of henna-flowersIn the vineyardsH3754 of En-gedi.
