Sng Song of Solomon, chapter Song of Solomon, chapter 1
The song of songs, which is Solomon's. Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth — for thy love is better than wine. Sng 4:10Thine ointments have a goodly fragrance; thy name is as ointment poured forth; therefore do the maidens love thee. Psa 45:7Draw me, we will run after thee; the king hath brought me into his chambers; we will be glad and rejoice in thee, we will find thy love more fragrant than wine! sincerely do they love thee. Psa 45:8'I am black, but comely, O ye daughters of Jerusalem, as the tents of Kedar, as the curtains of Solomon. Psa 45:13; Psa 120:5Look not upon me, that I am swarthy, that the sun hath tanned me; my mother's sons were incensed against me, they made me keeper of the vineyards; but mine own vineyard have I not kept.' 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 veileth herself beside the flocks of thy companions? Sng 3:1; Sng 5:9If 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. I have compared thee, O my love, to a steed in Pharaoh's chariots. 1Ki 10:28; Sng 2:2Thy cheeks are comely with circlets, thy neck with beads. Ezk 16:11We will make thee circlets of gold with studs of silver. While the king sat at his table, my spikenard sent forth its fragrance. My beloved is unto me as a bag of myrrh, that lieth betwixt my breasts. My beloved is unto me as a cluster of henna in the vineyards of En-gedi. 1Sa 23:29Behold, thou art fair, my love; behold, thou art fair; thine eyes are as doves. Sng 4:1Behold, thou art fair, my beloved, yea, pleasant; also our couch is leafy. The beams of our houses are cedars, and our panels are cypresses.
