Song of Songs 7:2-4
New Catholic Bible
Bridegroom:
Why are you looking at the Shulammite
as at a dance of Mahanaim?
Companions:
2 How beautiful are your feet in sandals,
O prince’s daughter.
Your rounded thighs are like jewels,
the handiwork of a master hand.
3 Your navel is a well-rounded bowl
that never lacks mixed wine.
Your belly is a mound of wheat[a]
surrounded by lilies.
4 Your two breasts are like two fawns,
twins of a gazelle.
