Song of Solomon 7:7-9
Expanded Bible
7 You are like a palm tree [C tall and slender],
and your breasts are like its bunches of fruit.
8 I said, “I will climb up the palm tree
and ·take hold of [grasp] its fruit.”
Let your breasts be like ·bunches of grapes [L clusters of the vine],
the smell of your breath like apples,
9 and your mouth like the best wine.
The Woman Speaks to the Man
Let this wine go down sweetly for my lover;
may it flow gently past the lips and teeth.
Song of Solomon 7:7-9
Amplified Bible
7
“Your stature is like that of a palm tree
And your breasts like its clusters [of dates].
8
“I said, ‘I will climb the palm tree;
I will grasp its branches.
Let your breasts be like clusters of the grapevine,
And the fragrance of your breath like apples,
9
‘And your kisses like the best wine!’”
