Song Of Solomon 4:3-9 New English Translation (NET)

3. Your lips are like a scarlet thread;your mouth is lovely.Your forehead behind your veilis like a slice of pomegranate.

4. Your neck is like the tower of Davidbuilt with courses of stones;one thousand shields are hung on it – all shields of valiant warriors.

5. Your two breasts are like two fawns,twins of the gazellegrazing among the lilies.

6. Until the dawn arrivesand the shadows flee,I will go up to the mountain of myrrh,and to the hill of frankincense.

7. You are altogether beautiful, my darling!There is no blemish in you!

8. Come with me from Lebanon, my bride,come with me from Lebanon.Descend from the crest of Amana,from the top of Senir, the summit of Hermon,from the lions’ densand the mountain haunts of the leopards.

9. You have stolen my heart, my sister, my bride!You have stolen my heart with one glance of your eyes,with one jewel of your necklace.
