Song of Solomon 4:7-16

New American Standard Bible

⁷“^(A)You are altogether beautiful, my darling,
And there is no blemish on you.
⁸Come with me from ^(B)Lebanon, my ^(C)bride,
You shall come with me from Lebanon.
You shall ^[a]come down from the summit of ^(D)Amana,
From the summit of ^(E)Senir and Hermon,
From the dens of lions,
From the mountains of leopards.
⁹You have ^[b]enchanted my heart, ^(F)my sister, my bride;
You have ^[c]enchanted my heart with a single glance of your eyes,
With a single strand of your ^(G)necklace.
¹⁰^(H)How beautiful is your love, my sister, my bride!
How much ^[d]^(I)sweeter is your love than wine,
And the ^(J)fragrance of your oils
Than that of all kinds of balsam oils!
¹¹Your lips ^(K)drip ^(L)honey, my bride;
Honey and milk are under your tongue,
And the fragrance of your garments is like the ^(M)fragrance of Lebanon.
¹²A locked garden is my sister, my bride,
A locked spring, a ^(N)sealed ^(O)fountain.
¹³Your branches are an ^[e]^(P)orchard of ^(Q)pomegranates
With ^(R)delicious fruits, ^(S)henna with nard plants,
¹⁴^(T)Nard and saffron, spice reed and ^(U)cinnamon,
With all the trees of ^(V)frankincense,
^(W)Myrrh, and aloes, along with all the finest balsam oils.
¹⁵You are a garden spring,
A well of ^[f]^(X)fresh water,
And flowing streams from Lebanon.”

The Bride

¹⁶“Awake, north wind,
And come, wind of the south;
^[g]Make my ^(Y)garden breathe out fragrance,
May its balsam oils flow.
May ^(Z)my beloved come into his garden
And eat its ^(AA)delicious fruits!”
