Song of Songs 1:2-6

2Let him kiss meH3588 with the kissesH5390 of his mouthH6310: for thy loveH1730 is betterH2896 thanH2896 wineH3196.

3Thine ointments have a goodly fragrance; thy nameH8034 is as ointmentH8081 poured forth; therefore do the virgins loveH157 thee.

4DrawH4900 meH935; we will runH7323 afterH310 thee: the kingH4428 hath broughtH935 meH935 intoH935 his chambersH2315: we will be gladH8055 and rejoiceH8055 in thee, we will makeH8055 mentionH2142 of thy loveH157 more thanH4428 of wineH3196: rightlyH4339 doH935 they loveH157 thee.

5I am blackH7838, but comelyH5000, O ye daughtersH1323 of JerusalemH3389, as the tentsH168 of KedarH6938, as the curtainsH3407 of SolomonH8010.

6LookH7200 notH3808 uponH7200 meH7760, because I am swarthyH7840, because the sunH8121 hath scorchedH2787 meH7760. My mother’sH517 sonsH1121 were incensed against meH7760, they madeH7760 meH7760 keeper of the vineyardsH3754; but mine own vineyardH3754 have I notH3808 kept.
