Song of Solomon 7:7-9
World English Bible
7 This, your stature, is like a palm tree,
your breasts like its fruit.
8 I said, “I will climb up into the palm tree.
I will take hold of its fruit.”
Let your breasts be like clusters of the vine,
the smell of your breath like apples.
9 Your mouth is like the best wine,
that goes down smoothly for my beloved,
gliding through the lips of those who are asleep.

And the fragrance of your [b]breath like (A)apples,
9 And your [c](B)mouth like the best wine!”
The Bride
“It (C)goes down smoothly for my beloved,
Flowing gently through the lips of those who are asleep.
