Song of Songs 8:5-14
5Who is this that cometh up from the wildernessH4057, Leaning upon her beloved? I awoke thee under the apple-tree: There thy motherH517 broughtH5927 thee forthH3205; There she broughtH5927 thee forthH3205 [that] boreH3205 thee. 6SetH7760 me as a sealH2368 upon thy heartH3820, As a sealH2368 upon thine armH2220: For loveH160 is strongH5794 as deathH4194; JealousyH7068 is cruel as SheolH7585: The flashesH7565 thereof are flashesH7565 of fireH784, Flames of Jah. 7ManyH7227 watersH4325 cannot quenchH3518 loveH160, Neither do the floods drown it: Even if a manH376 gaveH5414 all the substance of his houseH1004 for loveH160, It would utterly be contemned. 8We have a littleH6996 sisterH269, And she hath no breastsH7699: What shall we do for our sisterH269 In the dayH3117 when she shall be spokenH1696 for? — 9If she be a wallH2346, We will buildH1129 upon her a turret of silverH3701; And if she be a doorH1817, We will enclose her with boards of cedarH730. 10I am a wallH2346, and my breastsH7699 like towersH4026; ThenH227 wasH1961 I in his eyesH5869 as one that findeth peaceH7965. 11SolomonH8010 had a vineyardH3754 at Baal-hamon: He let out the vineyardH3754 unto keepers; Every oneH376 for the fruitH6529 thereof wasH1961 to bringH935 a thousandH505 silver-pieces. 12My vineyardH3754, which is mine, is before me: The thousandH505 [silver-pieces] be to thee, SolomonH8010; And to the keepers of its fruitH6529, twoH3967 hundredH3967. 13Thou that dwellest in the gardensH1588, The companionsH2270 hearken to thy voiceH6963: Let me hearH8085 [it]. 14Haste, my beloved, And be thou like a gazelle or a young hart Upon the mountainsH2022 of spicesH1314.
