Song of Solomon 1:5-6
1599 Geneva Bible
5 Regard ye me not because I am [a]black: for the [b]sun hath looked upon me. The [c]sons of my mother were angry against me: they made me the keeper of the vines: but I [d]kept not mine own vine.
6 Show me, [e]O thou whom my soul loveth, where thou feedest, where thou liest at noon: for why should I be as she that turneth aside to the stocks of [f]thy companions?
