The Song of Solomon 1


Chapters:



1:   The song of songs, which is Solomon's.

2:   Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth: for thy love is better than wine.
3:   Because of the savour of thy good ointments thy name is as ointment poured forth, therefore do the virgins love thee.
4:   Draw 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.

5:   I am black, but comely, O ye daughters of Jerusalem, as the tents of Kedar, as the curtains of Solomon.
6:   Look not upon me, because I am black, because the sun hath looked upon me: my mother's children were angry with me; they made me the keeper of the vineyards; but mine own vineyard have I not kept.

7:   Tell 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?

8:   If 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.

9:   I have compared thee, O my love, to a company of horses in Pharaoh's chariots.
10:   Thy cheeks are comely with rows of jewels, thy neck with chains of gold.
11:   We will make thee borders of gold with studs of silver.

12:   While the king sitteth at his table, my spikenard sendeth forth the smell thereof.
13:   A bundle of myrrh is my wellbeloved unto me; he shall lie all night betwixt my breasts.
14:   My beloved is unto me as a cluster of camphire in the vineyards of En-gedi.

15:   Behold, thou art fair, my love; behold, thou art fair; thou hast doves' eyes.

16:   Behold, thou art fair, my beloved, yea, pleasant: also our bed is green.
17:   The beams of our house are cedar, and our rafters of fir.
