Song of Solomon 1:7-8
Authorized (King James) Version
7 Tell me, O thou whom my soul loveth,
where thou feedest, where thou makest thy flock to rest at noon:
for why should I be as one that turneth aside by the flocks of thy companions?
8 If thou know not, O thou fairest among women,
go thy way forth by the footsteps of the flock,
and feed thy kids beside the shepherds’ tents.
Song of Solomon 1:7-8
New King James Version
(To Her Beloved)
7 Tell me, O you whom I love,
Where you feed your flock,
Where you make it rest at noon.
For why should I be as one who [a]veils herself
By the flocks of your companions?
The Beloved
8 If you do not know, (A)O fairest among women,
[b]Follow in the footsteps of the flock,
And feed your little goats
Beside the shepherds’ tents.
