1 H5414 [H8799] O that H251 thou wert as my brother, H3243 [H8802] that was nourished at H7699 the breasts H517 of my mother! H4672 [H8799] when I should find H2351 thee outside, H5401 [H8799] I would kiss H936 [H8799] thee; yea, I should not be despised.

2 H5090 [H8799] I would lead H935 [H8686] thee, and bring H517 thee into my mother's H1004 house, H3925 [H8762] who would instruct H8248 [H8686] me: I would cause thee to drink H7544 of spiced H3196 wine H6071 of the juice H7416 of my pomegranate.

3 H8040 His left hand H7218 should be under my head, H3225 and his right hand H2263 [H8762] should embrace me.

4 H7650 [H8689] I charge H1323 you, O daughters H3389 of Jerusalem, H5782 [H8686] that ye stir not, H5782 [H8787] nor awake H160 my love, H2654 [H8799] until he please.

5 H5927 [H8802] Who is this that cometh up H4057 from the wilderness, H7514 [H8693] leaning H1730 upon her beloved? H5782 [H8790] I awakened H8598 thee under the apple tree: H517 there thy mother H2254 [H8765] brought thee forth: H2254 [H8765] there she brought thee forth H3205 [H8804] that bore thee.

6 H7760 [H8798] Set H2368 me as a seal H3820 upon thine heart, H2368 as a seal H2220 upon thy arm: H160 for love H5794 is strong H4194 as death; H7068 jealousy H7186 is cruel H7585 as the grave: H7565 the coals H7565 of it are coals H784 of fire, H7957 which hath a most vehement flame.

7 H7227 Many H4325 waters H3201 [H8799] cannot H3518 [H8763] quench H160 love, H5104 neither can the floods H7857 [H8799] drown H376 it: if a man H5414 [H8799] would give H1952 all the substance H1004 of his house H160 for love, H936 [H8800] it would utterly H936 [H8799] be despised.

8 H6996 We have a little H269 sister, H7699 and she hath no breasts: H6213 [H8799] what shall we do H269 for our sister H3117 in the day H1696 [H8792] when she shall be spoken for?

9 H2346 If she is a wall, H1129 [H8799] we will build H2918 upon her a palace H3701 of silver: H1817 and if she is a door, H6696 [H8799] we will inclose H3871 her with boards H730 of cedar.

10 H2346 I am a wall, H7699 and my breasts H4026 like towers: H5869 then was I in his eyes H4672 [H8802] as one that found H7965 favour.

11 H8010 Solomon H3754 had a vineyard H1174 at Baalhamon; H5414 [H8804] he gave H3754 the vineyard H5201 [H8802] to keepers; H376 every one H6529 for the fruit H935 [H8686] of it was to bring H505 a thousand H3701 pieces of silver.

12 H3754 My vineyard, H6440 which is mine, is at the face of H8010 me: thou, O Solomon, H505 must have a thousand, H5201 [H8802] and those that keep H6529 the fruit H3967 of it two hundred.

13 H3427 [H8802] Thou that dwellest H1588 in the gardens, H2270 the companions H7181 [H8688] pricked up their ears H6963 to thy voice: H8085 [H8685] cause me to hear it.

14 H1272 [H8798] Make haste, H1730 my beloved, H1819 [H8798] and be thou like H6643 a roe H6082 or a young H354 hart H2022 upon the mountains H1314 of spices.
