Revised Version 1895
Song of Songs 4:3-11
3Thy lipsH8193 are like a threadH2339 of scarletH8144, and thy mouth is comelyH5000: thy templesH7541 are like a pieceH6400 of a pomegranateH7416 behindH1157 thy veilH6777.
4Thy neckH6677 is like the towerH4026 of DavidH1732 builded for an armoury, whereon there hangH8518 a thousandH505 bucklers, allH3605 the shieldsH4043 of the mightyH1368 menH1368.
5Thy twoH8147 breastsH7699 are like twoH8147 fawnsH6082 that are twinsH8380 of a roe, which feedH7462 among the liliesH7799.
6UntilH5704 the dayH3117 be coolH6315, and the shadows fleeH5127 awayH5127, I will get meH413 to the mountainH2022 of myrrhH4753, and to the hillH2022 of frankincenseH3828.
7Thou art allH3605 fairH3303, my love; and there is noH369 spotH3971 in thee.
8ComeH935 with meH935 from LebanonH3844, my brideH3618, with meH935 from LebanonH3844: lookH7789 from the topH7218 of AmanaH549, from the topH7218 of SenirH8149 and HermonH2768, from the lions’H738 densH4585, from the mountainsH2042 of the leopardsH5246.
9Thou hast ravished my heart, my sisterH269, my brideH3618; thou hast ravished my heart with one of thine eyesH5869, with one chain of thy neckH6677.
10HowH4100 fairH2895 is thy loveH1730, my sisterH269, my brideH3618! howH4100 muchH4100 better is thy loveH1730 thanH3605 wineH3196! and the smell of thine ointments thanH3605 allH3605 manner of spicesH1314!
11Thy lipsH8193, O my brideH3618, drop as the honeycomb: honeyH1706 and milkH2461 are underH8478 thy tongueH3956; and the smell of thy garmentsH8008 is like the smell of LebanonH3844.
