Song of Solomon 6:3-5
Easy-to-Read Version
3 I belong to my lover, and my lover belongs to me.
He is the one feeding among the lilies.
He Speaks to Her
4 My darling, you are as beautiful as Tirzah,[a]
as pleasant as Jerusalem,
as awesome as the stars in the sky.[b]
5 Don’t look at me!
Your eyes excite me too much!
And your hair is long and flowing,
like little goats dancing down the slopes of Mount Gilead.
