Song of Solomon 8:6-7
Holman Christian Standard Bible
6 Set me as a seal on your heart,
as a seal on your arm.(A)
For love is as strong as death;(B)
ardent love is as unrelenting as Sheol.
Love’s flames are fiery flames(C)—
the fiercest of all.[a]
7 Mighty waters cannot extinguish love;
rivers cannot sweep it away.
If a man were to give all his wealth[b] for love,(D)
it would be utterly scorned.

Song of Solomon 8:6-7
International Standard Version
6 Set me like a seal[a] over your heart,
like a seal on your arm.
For love is as strong as death,
passion[b] as intense as Sheol.[c]
The flames of love[d] are flames of fire,
a blaze that comes from the Lord.[e]
7 Mighty bodies of water cannot extinguish love,
rivers cannot put it out.
If a man were to give all the wealth of his house for love,
he would surely be viewed with contempt.
