Song of Songs 4:8-12

8Come with me from 1Lebanon, my 2bride, May you come with me from Lebanon. 3Journey down from the summit of 4Amana, From the summit of 5Senir and Hermon, From the dens of lions, From the mountains of leopards.9You have made my heart beat faster, 6my sister, my bride; You have made my heart beat faster with a single glance of your eyes, With a single strand of your 7necklace.10 8How beautiful is your love, my sister, my bride! How much 9better is your love than wine, And the 10fragrance of your oils Than all kinds of 11spices!11Your lips, my bride, 12drip 13honey; Honey and milk are under your tongue, And the fragrance of your garments is like the 14fragrance of Lebanon.12A garden locked is my sister, my bride, A 15rock garden locked, a 16spring 17sealed up.
