Song of Songs 8:5-14

Song of Songs 8:5-14 CSB

Who is this coming up from the wilderness, leaning on the one she loves? I awakened you under the apricot tree. There your mother conceived you; there she conceived and gave you birth. Set me as a seal on your heart, as a seal on your arm. For love is as strong as death; jealousy is as unrelenting as Sheol. Love’s flames are fiery flames — an almighty flame! A huge torrent cannot extinguish love; rivers cannot sweep it away. If a man were to give all his wealth for love, it would be utterly scorned. Our sister is young; she has no breasts. What will we do for our sister on the day she is spoken for? If she is a wall, we will build a silver barricade on her. If she is a door, we will enclose her with cedar planks. I am a wall and my breasts like towers. So to him I have become like one who finds peace. Solomon owned a vineyard in Baal-hamon. He leased the vineyard to tenants. Each was to bring for his fruit one thousand pieces of silver. I have my own vineyard. , The one thousand are for you, Solomon, but two hundred for those who take care of its fruits. You who dwell in the gardens, companions are listening for your voice; let me hear you! Run away with me, my love, and be like a gazelle or a young stag on the mountains of spices.
