Song of Songs 1:6-9

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.

7TellH5046 meH5315, O thou whom my soulH5315 loveth, whereH4100 thou feedest thy flockH5739, whereH4100 thou makest it to restH7257 at noonH6672: for whyH4100 should I be as one that is veiled besideH5921 the flocksH5739 of thy companionsH2270?

8IfH518 thou knowH3045 notH3808, O thou fairest among womenH802, goH3318 thy wayH5921 forthH3318 by the footstepsH6119 of the flockH6629, and feedH7462 thy kids besideH5921 the shepherds’ tentsH4908.

9I have comparedH1819 thee, O my love, to a steed in Pharaoh’sH6547 chariotsH7393.
