31 Song of Solomon 1:1

31 Song of Solomon 1:1-17 ¹The song of songs, which is Solomons. ²Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth: for thy love is better than wine. ³Because of the savour of thy good ointments thy name is as ointment poured forth, therefore do the virgins love thee. ⁴Draw me, we will run after thee: the king hath brought me into his chambers: we will be glad and rejoice in thee, we will remember thy love more than wine: the upright love thee. ⁵I am black, but comely, O ye daughters of Jerusalem, as the tents of Kedar, as the curtains of Solomon. ⁶Look not upon me, because I am black, because the sun hath looked upon me: my mothers children were angry with me; they made me the keeper of the vineyards; but mine own vineyard have I not kept. ⁷Tell me, O thou whom my soul loveth, where thou feedest, where thou makest thy flock to rest at noon: for why should I be as one that turneth aside by the flocks of thy companions?

⁸If thou know not, O thou fairest among women, go thy way forth by the footsteps of the flock, and feed thy kids beside the shepherds tents. ⁹I have compared thee, O my love, to a company of horses in Pharaohs chariots. ¹⁰Thy cheeks are comely with rows of jewels, thy neck with chains of gold. ¹¹We will make thee borders of gold with studs of silver.

¹²While the king sitteth at his table, my spikenard sendeth forth the smell thereof. ¹³A bundle of myrrh is my wellbeloved unto me; he shall lie all night betwixt my breasts. ¹⁴My beloved is unto me as a cluster of camphire in the vineyards of En-gedi. ¹⁵Behold, thou art fair, my love; behold, thou art fair; thou hast doves eyes. ¹⁶Behold, thou art fair, my beloved, yea, pleasant: also our bed is green. ¹⁷The beams of our house are cedar, and our rafters of fir.(KJV)

31 Song of Solomon 1:1-17 ¹The Song of songs, which is Solomon's.

²Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth;

For thy love is better than wine.

³Thine oils have a goodly fragrance;

Thy name is as oil poured forth;

Therefore do the virgins love thee.

⁴Draw me; we will run after thee:

The king hath brought me into his chambers;

We will be glad and rejoice in thee;

We will make mention of thy love more than of wine:

Rightly do they love thee.

⁵I am black, but comely,

Oh ye daughters of Jerusalem,

As the tents of Kedar,

As the curtains of Solomon.

⁶Look not upon me, because I am swarthy,

Because the sun hath scorched me.

My mother's sons were incensed against me;

They made me keeper of the vineyards;

But mine own vineyard have I not kept.

⁷Tell me, O thou whom my soul loveth,

Where thou feedest thy flock,

Where thou makest it to rest at noon:

For why should I be as one that is veiled

Beside the flocks of thy companions?

⁸If thou know not, O thou fairest among women,

Go thy way forth by the footsteps of the flock,

And feed thy kids beside the shepherds' tents.

⁹I have compared thee, O my love,

To a steed in Pharaoh's chariots.

¹⁰Thy cheeks are comely with plaits of hair,

Thy neck with strings of jewels.

¹¹We will make thee plaits of gold

With studs of silver.

¹²While the king sat at his table,

My spikenard sent forth its fragrance.

¹³My beloved is unto me as a bundle of myrrh,

That lieth betwixt my breasts.

¹⁴My beloved is unto me as a cluster of henna-flowers

In the vineyards of En-gedi.

¹⁵Behold, thou art fair, my love;

Behold thou art fair;

Thine eyes are as doves.

¹⁶Behold, thou art fair, my beloved, yea, pleasant:

Also our couch is green.

¹⁷The beams of our house are cedars,(ASV)

31 Song of Solomon 1:1-17 ¹THE song of songs, which is Solomon's, the son of David king of Israel.

²¶ Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth; for your love is better than wine. ³Because of the fragrance of your good ointments your name is like ointment of myrrh, therefore do the virgins love you. ⁴Draw me after you, let us run; the king has brought me into his chambers; we will be glad and rejoice in you, we will remember your love more than wine, and your affections more than the upright. ⁵I have dark skin, but I am comely, O daughters of Jerusalem, like the tents of Kedar, like the curtains of Solomon. ⁶Do not look at me because I have dark skin, because the sun has tanned me; my mother's sons contended with me; they made me the keeper of the vineyards; but my own vineyard I have not kept.

⁷¶ Tell me, O you whom my soul loves, where did I feed, where did I make my flock to rest at noon? Lest I become like a sheep which has gone astray from your flocks. ⁸If you do not know, O you most beautiful among women, come, follow in the footprints of the flock, and feed your kids beside the shepherds' tents. ⁹I have compared you, O my beloved, to a mare in Pharaoh's chariot. ¹⁰Your cheeks are comely with braided hair, and your neck with necklaces. ¹¹We will make for you golden chains with studs of silver.

¹²¶ While you are seated with the king upon his cushion, spikenard sends forth its fragrance. ¹³A bundle of myrrh is my beloved to me; he shall lie all night between my breasts. ¹⁴My beloved is to me like a cluster of henna flowers in a vineyard of Engad. ¹⁵Behold, you are beautiful, O my beloved; behold, you are fair; you have dove's eyes. ¹⁶Behold, you are beautiful, my beloved, yea, pleasant; also our bed is spacious. ¹⁷The beams of our house are of cedar, and our rafters of cypress. (LAM)

31 Song of Solomon 1:1-17 ¹The Song of Songs, which is Solomon's. ²O that you would kiss me with the kisses of your mouth! For your love is better than wine, ³your anointing oils are fragrant, your name is oil poured out; therefore the maidens love you. ⁴Draw me after you, let us make haste. The king has brought me into his chambers. We will exult and rejoice in you; we will extol your love more than wine; rightly do they love you. ⁵I am very dark, but comely, O daughters of Jerusalem, like the tents of Kedar, like the curtains of Solomon. ⁶Do not gaze at me because I am swarthy, because the sun has scorched me. My mother's sons were angry with me, they made me keeper of the vineyards; but, my own vineyard I have not kept! ⁷Tell me, you whom my soul loves, where you pasture your flock, where you make it lie down at noon; for why should I be like one who wanders beside the flocks of your companions? ⁸If you do not know, O fairest among women, follow in the tracks of the flock, and pasture your kids beside the shepherds' tents. ⁹I compare you, my love, to a mare of Pharaoh's chariots. ¹⁰Your cheeks are comely with ornaments, your neck with strings of jewels. ¹¹We will make you ornaments of gold, studded with silver. ¹²While the king was on his couch, my nard gave forth its fragrance. ¹³My beloved is to me a bag of myrrh, that lies between my breasts. ¹⁴My beloved is to me a cluster of henna blossoms in the vineyards of Enge'di. ¹⁵Behold, you are beautiful, my love; behold, you are beautiful; your eyes are doves. ¹⁶Behold, you are beautiful, my beloved, truly lovely. Our couch is green; ¹⁷the beams of our house are cedar, our rafters are pine. (RSV)

No wonder the maidens love you! ⁴Take me away with you -- let us hurry! Let the king bring me into his chambers. We rejoice and delight in you; we will praise your love more than wine. How right they are to adore you! ⁵Dark am I, yet lovely, O daughters of Jerusalem, dark like the tents of Kedar, like the tent curtains of Solomon. ⁶Do not stare at me because I am dark, because I am darkened by the sun. My mother's sons were angry with me and made me take care of the vineyards; my own vineyard I have neglected. ⁷Tell me, you whom I love, where you graze your flock and where you rest your sheep at midday. Why should I be like a veiled woman beside the flocks of your friends? ⁸If you do not know, most beautiful of women, follow the tracks of the sheep and graze your young goats by the tents of the shepherds. ⁹I liken you, my darling, to a mare harnessed to one of the chariots of Pharaoh. ¹⁰Your cheeks are beautiful with earrings, your neck with strings of jewels. ¹¹We will make you earrings of gold, studded with silver. ¹²While the king was at his table, my perfume spread its fragrance. ¹³My lover is to me a sachet of myrrh resting between my breasts. ¹⁴My lover is to me a cluster of henna blossoms from the vineyards of En Gedi. ¹⁵How beautiful you are, my darling!

Where you graze your flock,
Where you rest them at noon;
