Verse YLT Young's Literal Translation BSB Berean Standard Bible
As the chorus of `Mahanaim.' How beautiful were thy feet with sandals , O daughter of Nadib. The turnings of thy sides ` are ' as ornaments , Work of the hands of an artificer .
How beautiful are your sandaled feet, O daughter of the prince! The curves of your thighs are like jewels , the handiwork of a master .
Thy waist ` is ' a basin of roundness, It lacketh not the mixture, Thy body a heap of wheat , fenced with lilies ,
Your navel is a rounded goblet; it never lacks blended wine. Your waist is a mound of wheat encircled by the lilies .
Thy two breasts as two young ones , twins of a roe,
Your breasts are like two fawns , twins of a gazelle.
Thy neck as a tower of the ivory , Thine eyes pools in Heshbon , near the gate of Bath-Rabbim , Thy face as a tower of Lebanon looking to Damascus ,
Your neck is like a tower made of ivory ; your eyes are like the pools of Heshbon by the gate of Bath-rabbim ; your nose is like the tower of Lebanon, facing toward Damascus.
Thy head upon thee as Carmel, And the locks of thy head as purple , The king is bound with the flowings!
Your head crowns you like Mount Carmel, the hair of your head like purple threads; the king is captured in your tresses.
How fair and how pleasant hast thou been , O love, in delights .
How fair and pleasant you are , O love, with your delights !
This thy stature hath been like to a palm , And thy breasts to clusters.
Your stature is like a palm tree; your breasts are clusters of fruit .
I said, `Let me go up on the palm , Let me lay hold on its boughs, Yea, let thy breasts be , I pray thee, as clusters of the vine, And the fragrance of thy face as citrons ,
I said, “I will climb the palm tree; I will take hold of its fruit.” May your breasts be like clusters of the vine, the fragrance of your breath like apples ,
And thy palate as the good wine --' Flowing to my beloved in uprightness , Strengthening the lips of the aged!
and your mouth like the finest wine . May it flow smoothly to my beloved, gliding gently over lips and teeth.
I `am' my beloved's , and on me `is' his desire.
I belong to my beloved , and his desire is for me .
Come, my beloved, we go forth to the field,
Come, my beloved, let us go to the countryside; let us spend the night among the wildflowers.
We lodge in the villages, we go early to the vineyards , We see if the vine hath flourished , The sweet smelling-flower hath opened . The pomegranates have blossomed, There do I give to thee my loves;
Let us go early to the vineyards to see if the vine has budded , if the blossom has opened , if the pomegranates are in bloom— there I will give you my love.
The mandrakes have given fragrance, And at our openings all pleasant things , New , yea, old, my beloved, I laid up for thee!
The mandrakes send forth a fragrance, and at our door is every delicacy , new as well as old, that I have treasured up for you, my beloved.
