Song of Songs 7:2-8

2Thy navelH8326 is like a roundH5469 gobletH101, which wantethH2637 not liquorH4197: thy bellyH990 is like an heapH6194 of wheatH2406 set aboutH5473 with liliesH7799.1

3Thy twoH8147 breastsH7699 are like twoH8147 youngH6082 roesH6646 that are twinsH8380.

4Thy neckH6677 is as a towerH4026 of ivoryH8127; thy eyesH5869 like the fishpoolsH1295 in HeshbonH2809, by the gateH8179 of BathrabbimH1337: thy noseH639 is as the towerH4026 of LebanonH3844 which lookethH6822 towardH6440 DamascusH1834.

5Thy headH7218 upon thee is like CarmelH3760, and the hairH1803 of thy headH7218 like purpleH713; the kingH4428 is held captiveH631 by her locks of hairH7298.23

6How fairH3302 and how pleasantH5276 art thou, O loveH160, for delightsH8588!

7This thy statureH6967 is likeH1819 a palm treeH8558, and thy breastsH7699 to clustersH811 of grapes .

8I saidH559, I will go upH5927 to the palm treeH8558, I will take holdH270 of its boughsH5577: now also thy breastsH7699 shall be as clustersH811 of the vineH1612, and the fragranceH7381 of thy breathH639 like applesH8598;
