Song of Solomon 1:9-14
New Living Translation
9 You are as exciting, my darling,
as a mare among Pharaoh’s stallions.
10 How lovely are your cheeks;
your earrings set them afire!
How lovely is your neck,
enhanced by a string of jewels.
11 We will make for you earrings of gold
and beads of silver.
Young Woman
12 The king is lying on his couch,
enchanted by the fragrance of my perfume.
13 My lover is like a sachet of myrrh
lying between my breasts.
14 He is like a bouquet of sweet henna blossoms
from the vineyards of En-gedi.
Song of Solomon 1:9-14
New American Standard Bible

My (B)mare among the chariots of Pharaoh.
10 Your (C)cheeks are delightful with jewelry,

With beads of silver.”
The Bride

My [b](E)perfume gave forth its fragrance.
13 My beloved is to me a pouch of (F)myrrh
Which lies all night between my breasts.

In the vineyards of (H)Engedi.”
