Song of Songs 4:3-11

3Thy lipsH8193 are like a threadH2339 of scarletH8144, And thy speech is comely; As a piece of a pomegranateH7416 are thy templesH7541 Behind thy veilH6777.

4Thy neckH6677 is like the towerH4026 of DavidH1732, BuiltH1129 for an armoury: A thousandH505 bucklers hangH8518 thereon, All shieldsH4043 of mightyH1368 menH1368.

5Thy twoH8147 breastsH7699 are like twoH8147 fawnsH6082, twinsH8380 of a gazelleH6646, Which feedH7462 among the liliesH7799.

6Until the dayH3117 dawn, and the shadows fleeH5127 away, I will get me to the mountainH2022 of myrrhH4753, And to the hillH2022 of frankincenseH3828.

7Thou art all fair, my love; And there is no spot in thee.

8[ComeH935] with me, from LebanonH3844, [my] spouse, With me from LebanonH3844, — ComeH935, look from the topH7218 of Amanah, From the topH7218 of SenirH8149 and HermonH2768, From the lions' densH4585, From the mountainsH2042 of the leopardsH5246.

9Thou hast ravished my heart, my sisterH269, [my] spouse; Thou hast ravished my heart with oneH259 of thine eyesH5869, With oneH259 chain of thy neckH6677.

10HowH4100 fair is thy love, my sisterH269, [my] spouse! HowH4100 much better is thy love than wineH3196! And the fragrance of thine ointments than all spicesH1314!

11Thy lipsH8193, [my] spouse, drop [as] the honeycomb; HoneyH1706 and milkH2461 are under thy tongueH3956; And the smell of thy garmentsH8008 is like the smell of LebanonH3844.
