He
7 How beautiful are your feet in sandals,
O (E)noble daughter!
Your rounded thighs are like (F)jewels,
the work of (G)a master hand.
2 Your navel is a rounded bowl
that never lacks mixed wine.
Your belly is a heap of wheat,
encircled with (H)lilies.
3 (I)Your two breasts are like two fawns,
twins of a gazelle.
4 Your (J)neck is like an ivory tower.
Your (K)eyes are pools in (L)Heshbon,
by the gate of Bath-rabbim.
Your nose is like a tower of (M)Lebanon,
which looks toward (N)Damascus.
5 Your head crowns you like (O)Carmel,
and your (P)flowing locks are like purple;
a king is held captive in the tresses.

the hair of your head like purple cloth—
a king could be held captive(F) in your tresses.
