SongofSolomon 4 ASV — SongofSolomon 4

1 Behold, thou art fair, my love; behold, thou art fair; Thine eyes are [as] doves behind thy veil. Thy hair is as a flock of goats, That lie along the side of mount Gilead. ASV — SongofSolomon 4:1

2 Thy teeth are like a flock [of ewes] that are [newly] shorn, Which are come up from the washing, Whereof every one hath twins, And none is bereaved among them. ASV — SongofSolomon 4:2

3 Thy lips are like a thread of scarlet, And thy mouth is comely. Thy temples are like a piece of a pomegranate Behind thy veil. ASV — SongofSolomon 4:3

4 Thy neck is like the tower of David builded for an armory, Whereon there hang a thousand bucklers, All the shields of the mighty men. ASV — SongofSolomon 4:4

5 Thy two breasts are like two fawns That are twins of a roe, Which feed among the lilies. ASV — SongofSolomon 4:5

6 Until the day be cool, and the shadows flee away, I will get me to the mountain of myrrh, And to the hill of frankincense. ASV — SongofSolomon 4:6

7 Thou art all fair, my love; And there is no spot in thee. ASV — SongofSolomon 4:7

8 Come with me from Lebanon, [my] bride, With me from Lebanon: Look from the top of Amana, From the top of Senir and Hermon, From the lions` dens, From the mountains of the leopards. ASV — SongofSolomon 4:8

9 Thou hast ravished my heart, my sister, [my] bride; Thou hast ravished my heart with one of thine eyes, With one chain of thy neck. ASV — SongofSolomon 4:9

10 How fair is thy love, my sister, [my] bride! How much better is thy love than wine! And the fragrance of thine oils than all manner of spices! ASV — SongofSolomon 4:10

11 Thy lips, O [my] bride, drop [as] the honeycomb: Honey and milk are under thy tongue; And the smell of thy garments is like the smell of Lebanon. ASV — SongofSolomon 4:11

12 A garden shut up is my sister, [my] bride; A spring shut up, a fountain sealed. ASV — SongofSolomon 4:12

13 Thy shoots are an orchard of pomegranates, with precious fruits; Henna with spikenard plants, ASV — SongofSolomon 4:13

14 Spikenard and saffron, Calamus and cinnamon, with all trees of frankincense; Myrrh and aloes, with all the chief spices. ASV — SongofSolomon 4:14

15 [Thou art] a fountain of gardens, A well of living waters, And flowing streams from Lebanon. ASV — SongofSolomon 4:15

16 Awake, O north wind; and come, thou south; Blow upon my garden, that the spices thereof may flow out. Let my beloved come into his garden, And eat his precious fruits. ASV — SongofSolomon 4:16
