Song of Solomon 6:13-7:6
Amplified Bible
(The Chorus)
13
“Return, return, O Shulammite;
Return, return, that we may gaze at you.”
(The Bridegroom)
“Why should you gaze at the Shulammite,
As at the dance of the two armies?
Admiration by the Bridegroom
7 “How beautiful are your feet in sandals,
O prince’s daughter!
The curves of your hips are like jewels,
The work of the hands of an artist.
2
“Your navel is a round goblet
Which never lacks mixed wine.
Your belly is like a heap of wheat
Surrounded with lilies.
3
“Your two breasts are like two fawns,
The twins of a gazelle.
4
“Your neck is like a tower of ivory,
Your eyes the [sparkling] pools of Heshbon
By the gate of Bath-rabbim.
Your nose is like the tower of Lebanon
Which looks toward Damascus.
5
“Your head crowns you like Mount Carmel,
And the flowing hair of your head like purple threads;
I, the king, am held captive by your [a]tresses.
6
“How beautiful and how delightful you are,
My love, with all your delights!
