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 Songs 1:9-14

your neck with its necklace.

accented with silver.
Woman
12 While the king is on his couch,[b]
my perfume[c] releases its fragrance.(D)

spending the night between my breasts.

in the vineyards of En-gedi.(G)
