Song of Songs 1:2-4

New International Reader's Version

² “I long for your lips to kiss me!
    Your love makes me happier than wine does.
³ The lotion you have on pleases me.
    Your name is like perfume that is poured out.
    No wonder the young women love you!
⁴ Take me away with you. Let us hurry!
    King Solomon, bring me into your palace.”

“King Solomon, you fill us with joy. You make us happy.
    We praise your love more than we praise wine.”

“It is right for them to love you!
