Song of Songs 7:7-9
Christian Standard Bible
7 Your stature is like a palm tree;
your breasts are clusters of fruit.
8 I said, “I will climb the palm tree
and take hold of its fruit.”(A)
May your breasts be like clusters of grapes,
and the fragrance of your breath like apricots.(B)
9 Your mouth[a] is like fine wine(C)—
Woman
flowing smoothly for my love,
gliding past my lips and teeth![b]
