Introduction
1#1Ki 4:32The Song of Songs, which is Solomon’s.
The Woman
2#SS 4:10; 1:4 Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth!
For your love is better than wine.
3#Ecc 7:1; Ps 45:14 Your anointing oils are fragrant,
your name is oil poured out;
therefore the virgins love you.
4#Ps 45:14–15; 119:32 Draw me after you, let us run.
The king has brought me into his chambers.
Friends of the Woman
We will exult and rejoice in you;
we will remember your love more than wine;
rightly do they love you.
The Woman
5#Ps 120:5; SS 2:7 I am dark, but still lovely, O daughters of Jerusalem,
like the tents of Kedar,
like the curtains of Solomon.
6#Ps 69:8; SS 8:11–12 Do not gaze at me, because I am dark,
because the sun has looked upon me.
My mother’s sons were angry with me;
they made me the keeper of the vineyards,
but my own vineyard I have not kept.
7#SS 3:1–4; Ps 23:1–2 Tell 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 veils herself by the flocks of your companions?
Friends of the Woman
8#SS 5:9; 6:1 If you do not know, O fairest among women,
follow in the tracks of the flock,
and pasture your young goats
beside the shepherds’ tents.
The Man
9#SS 2:2; 2:10 I compare you, my love, to a mare among Pharaoh’s chariots.
10#SS 5:13; Eze 16:11–13 Lovely are your cheeks with ornaments,
your neck with chains of gold.
Friends of the Woman
11We will make you ornaments of gold,
with studs of silver.
The Woman
12#Jn 12:3 While the king was on his couch,
my nard gave forth its fragrance.
13#Ps 45:8; Jn 19:39 My beloved is to me a bundle of myrrh
that lies all night between my breasts.
14My beloved is to me a cluster of henna blossoms
in the vineyards of En Gedi.
The Man
15#SS 4:1; 5:12; 4:7 How fair you are, my love.
How fair you are! Your eyes are doves.
The Woman
16#SS 2:3 How fair you are, my beloved!
Yes, pleasant!
Our bed is verdant;
17the beams of our house are cedar,
and our rafters of fir.
