Love Renewed in Lebanon
A Relative
5 aWho is this coming up from the wilderness,
Leaning upon her beloved?
I awakened you under the apple tree.
There your mother brought you forth;
There she who bore you brought you forth.
Leaning upon her beloved?
I awakened you under the apple tree.
There your mother brought you forth;
There she who bore you brought you forth.
The Shulamite to Her Beloved
6 aSet me as a seal upon your heart,
As a seal upon your arm;
For love is as strong as death,
bJealousy as1 cruel as the grave;
Its flames are flames of fire,
1A most vehement flame.
As a seal upon your arm;
For love is as strong as death,
bJealousy as1 cruel as the grave;
Its flames are flames of fire,
1A most vehement flame.
7 Many waters cannot quench love,
Nor can the floods drown it.
aIf a man would give for love
All the wealth of his house,
It would be utterly despised.
Nor can the floods drown it.
aIf a man would give for love
All the wealth of his house,
It would be utterly despised.
The Shulamite’s Brothers
8 aWe have a little sister,
And she has no breasts.
What shall we do for our sister
In the day when she is spoken for?
And she has no breasts.
What shall we do for our sister
In the day when she is spoken for?
