Song of Songs 4:9-11
EasyEnglish Bible
A wedding night
9 I love you so much that I never want to leave you,
my sister and my bride.[a]
When you looked at me only once
and I saw one jewel in your necklace,
I knew that I could never leave you.
10 Your love for me is wonderful,
my sister and my bride.
I enjoy your love even more than I enjoy wine.
Your perfume has a smell
that is more lovely than any spice!
11 Your lips taste very sweet to me, my bride.
They taste like honey that falls from the honeycomb.
Milk and honey are under your tongue.
The smell of your clothes
is like the cedar trees of Lebanon.
