Song of Songs 6:4-5, 7-13

Song of Songs 6:4-5 CSB

You are as beautiful as Tirzah, my darling, lovely as Jerusalem, awe-inspiring as an army with banners.  Turn your eyes away from me, for they captivate me.  Your hair is like a flock of goats streaming down from Gilead.

Song of Songs 6:7-13 CSB

Behind your veil,  your brow  is like a slice of pomegranate. There are sixty queens and eighty concubines  and young women  without number. But my dove,  my virtuous one, is unique;  she is the favorite of her mother, perfect to the one who gave her birth. Women see her and declare her fortunate;  queens and concubines also, and they sing her praises: Who is this  who shines like the dawn, as beautiful as the moon, bright as the sun, awe-inspiring as an army with banners?  I came down to the walnut grove to see the blossoms of the valley, to see if the vines were budding  and the pomegranates blooming. I didn’t know what was happening to me. I felt like I was in a chariot with a nobleman.  Come back, come back, Shulammite!  Come back, come back, that we may look at you!
