Song of Solomon 5:8

Compare all

6 I opened for my¹ beloved,
But my beloved had turned away and was gone.
My heart leaped up when he spoke.
^aI sought him, but I could not find him;
I called him, but he gave me no answer.

7 ^aThe watchmen who went about the city found me.
They struck me, they wounded me;
The keepers of the walls
Took my veil away from me.

8 I charge you, O daughters of Jerusalem,
If you find my beloved,
That you tell him I am lovesick!

The Daughters of Jerusalem

9 What is your beloved
More than another beloved,
^aO fairest among women?
What is your beloved
More than another beloved,
That you so¹ charge us?

The Shulamite

10 My beloved is white and ruddy,
¹Chief among ten thousand.

11 His head is like the finest gold;
His locks are wavy,
And black as a raven.

12 ^aHis eyes are like doves
By the rivers of waters,
Washed with milk,
And¹ fitly set.

13 His cheeks are like a bed of spices,
Banks of scented herbs.
His lips are lilies,
Dripping liquid myrrh.

14 His hands are rods of gold
Set with beryl.
His body is carved ivory
Inlaid with sapphires.

15 His legs are pillars of marble
Set on bases of fine gold.
His countenance is like Lebanon,
Excellent as the cedars.

16 His mouth is most sweet,
Yes, he is altogether lovely.
This is my beloved,
And this is my friend,
O daughters of Jerusalem!
