:Song of Solomon 1

:1. The song <7892 shiyr > of songs <7892 shiyr >, which <0834

>aher > [is] Solomon's <8010 Sh@lomoh >.

:2. Let him kiss <5401 nashaq > me with the kisses <5390

n@shiyqah > of his mouth <6310 peh >:for thy love <1730 dowd >

[is] better <2896 towb > than wine <3196 yayin >.

:3 Because of the savour <7381 reyach > of thy good <2896 towb >

ointments <8081 shemen > thy name <8034 shem > [is as] ointment

<8081 shemen > poured <7324 ruwq > forth, therefore do the

virgins <5959 <almah > love <0157 >ahab > thee.

:4 Draw <4900 mashak > me, we will run <7323 ruwts > after <0310

>achar > thee:the king <4428 melek > hath brought <0935 bow> >

me into his chambers <2315 cheder >:we will be glad <1528 giyr >

and rejoice <8055 samach > in thee, we will remember <2142 zakar

:5 I [am] black <7838 shachor >, but comely <5000 na>veh >, O ye

daughters <1121 ben > of Jerusalem <3389 Y@ruwshalaim >, as the

tents <0168 >ohel > of Kedar <6938 Qedar >, as the curtains

<3407 y@riy<ah > of Solomon <8010 Sh@lomoh >.

:6 Look <7200 ra>ah > not upon me, because I [am] black <7840

sh@charchoreth >, because the sun <8121 shemesh > hath looked

<7805 shazaph > upon me:my mother's <0517 >em > children <1121

ben > were angry <2734 charah > with me; they made <7760 suwm >

me the keeper <5201 natar > of the vineyards <3754 kerem >;

[but] mine own vineyard <3754 kerem > have I not kept <5201

natar >.

:7. Tell <5046 nagad > me, O thou whom my soul <5315 nephesh >

rabats > at noon <6672 tsohar >:for why <4100 mah > should I be

as one that turneth <5844 <atah > aside <5844 <atah > by the

flocks <5739 <eder > of thy companions <2270 chaber >?

:8 If <0518 >im > thou know <3045 yada< > not, O thou fairest

thy kids <1423 g@diy > beside <5921 <al > the shepherds <7462

ra<ah >' tents <4908 mishkan >.

:9 I have compared <1819 damah > thee, O my love <7474 ra<yah >,

to a company of horses <5484 cuwcah > in Pharaoh's <6547 Par<oh

> chariots <7393 rekeb >.

:10 Thy cheeks <3895 l@chiy > are comely <4998 na>ah > with rows

<8447 towr >[of jewels], thy neck <6677 tsavva>r > with chains

<2737 charuwz > [of gold].

:11 We will make <6213 <asah > thee borders <8447 towr > of gold

<2091 zahab> with studs <5351 n@quddah > of silver <3701 keceph

table <5424 netheq >, my spikenard <5373 nerd > sendeth <5414

nathan > forth the smell <7381 reyach > thereof.

:13 A bundle <6872 ts@rowr > of myrrh <4753 more > [is] my

wellbeloved <1730 dowd > unto me; he shall lie <3885 luwn > all

<3605 kol > night betwixt <0996 beyn > my breasts <7699 shad >.

:14 My beloved <1730 dowd > [is] unto me [as] a cluster <0811
