H251
O that you were as my brother,
H3243
that sucked
H7699
the breasts
H517
of my mother!
H4672
when I should find
H2351
you without,
H5401
I would kiss
H1571
you; yes,
H937
I should not be despised.
2
H5090
I would lead
H935
you, and bring
H413
you into
H517
my mother’s
H1004
house,
H3925
who would instruct
H8248
me: I would cause you to drink
H7544
of spiced
H3196
wine
H6071
of the juice
H7416
of my pomegranate.
3
H8040
His left
H8040
hand
H8478
should be under
H7218
my head,
H3225
and his right
H3225
hand
H2263
should embrace me.
4
H7650
I charge
H1323
you, O daughters
H3389
of Jerusalem,
H5782
that you stir
H5782
not up, nor awake
H160
my love,
H5704
until
H2654
he please.
5
H4310
Who
H2063
is this
H5927
that comes
H4057
up from the wilderness,
H7514
leaning
H1730
on her beloved?
H5782
I raised
H8478
you up under
H8598
the apple
H517
tree: there your mother
H2254
brought
H2254
you forth:
H2254
there she brought
H2254
you forth
H3205
that bore you.
6
H7760
Set
H2368
me as a seal
H3820
on your heart,
H2368
as a seal
H2220
on your arm:
H160
for love
H5794
is strong
H4194
as death;
H7068
jealousy
H7585
is cruel as the grave:
H7565
the coals
H7565
thereof are coals
H784
of fire,
H3050
which has a most vehement
H7957
flame.
7
H7227
Many
H4325
waters
H3808
cannot
H3201
H3518
quench
H160
love,
H3808
neither
H5104
can the floods
H7857
drown
H518
it: if
H376
a man
H5414
would give
H3605
all
H1952
the substance
H1004
of his house
H160
for love,
H936
it would utterly be contemned.

H6996
We have a little
H269
sister,
H369
and she has no
H7699
breasts:
H4100
what
H6213
shall we do
H269
for our sister
H3117
in the day
H1696
when she shall be spoken for?
9
H518
If
H2346
she be a wall,
H1129
we will build
H2918
on her a palace
H3701
of silver:
H518
and if
H1817
she be a door,
H6696
we will enclose
H3871
her with boards
H730
of cedar.
10
H2346
I am a wall,
H7699
and my breasts
H4026
like towers:
H227
then
H5869
was I in his eyes
H4672
as one that found
H7965
favor.
11
H8010
Solomon
H3754
had a vineyard
H1174
at Baalhamon;
H5414
he let
H3754
out the vineyard
H5201
to keepers;
H376
every
H376
one
H6529
for the fruit
H935
thereof was to bring
H505
a thousand
H3701
pieces of silver.
12
H3754
My vineyard,
H6440
which is mine, is before
H8010
me: you, O Solomon,
H505
must have a thousand,
H5201
and those that keep
H6529
the fruit
H3967
thereof two hundred.
