7 : 1 How beautiful are your feet in sandals,Onoble daughter!Your rounded thighs are likejewels,the work ofa master hand.
|
7 : 2 Your navel is a rounded bowlthat never lacks mixed wine.Your belly is a heap of wheat,encircled withlilies.
|
7 : 3 Your two breasts are like two fawns,twins of a gazelle.
|
7 : 4 Yourneck is like an ivory tower.Youreyes are pools inHeshbon,by the gate of Bath-rabbim.Your nose is like a tower ofLebanon,which looks towardDamascus.
|
7 : 5 Your head crowns you likeCarmel,and yourflowing locks are like purple;a king is held captive in the tresses.
|
7 : 6 How beautiful andpleasant you are,O loved one, with all your delights!
|
7 : 7 Your stature is like a palm tree,and your breasts are like its clusters.
|
7 : 8 I say I will climb the palm treeand lay hold of its fruit.Oh may your breasts be likeclusters of the vine,and the scent of your breath like apples,
|
7 : 9 and yourmouthlike the best wine.SheIt goes down smoothly for my beloved,gliding over lips and teeth.
|
7 : 10 I am my beloved's,and his desire is for me.
|
7 : 11 Come, my beloved,let us go out into the fieldsand lodge in the villages;
|
7 : 12 let us go out early to the vineyardsand see whether the vines have budded,whetherthe grape blossoms have openedand the pomegranates are in bloom.There I will give you my love.
|
7 : 13 The mandrakes give forth fragrance,and beside our doors are all choice fruits,new as well as old,which I have laid up for you, O my beloved.
