YLT
Young's Literal Translation

Berean Standard Bible
Who
doth
make
thee
as
a
brother
to me ,
Sucking
the
breasts
of
my mother?
I find
thee
without
, I kiss thee,
Yea
, they
do
not
despise me ,
O
that
you
were
to me like
a
brother
who
nursed
at
my mother’s
breasts!
If
I found
you
outdoors
, I would
kiss you
, and
no
one
would
despise me .
I lead thee,
I
bring thee
in
unto
my
mother's
house ,
She
doth
teach
me ,
I cause
thee
to drink of
the
perfumed
wine
, Of
the juice
of my pomegranate,
I would
lead you
and
bring you
to
the
house of
my
mother
who
taught
me .
I would
give
you
spiced
wine
to drink, the nectar
of my pomegranates.
His left hand `
is '
under my head, And his right doth
embrace
me.
His left hand is under my head, and his right arm
embraces
me.
I
have
adjured
you,
daughters of Jerusalem, How
ye
stir
up,
And
how
ye
wake
the
love till
she
please!
O
daughters of Jerusalem, I
adjure
you:
Do
not
arouse
or
awaken
love until
the
time
is
right.
Who `
is '
this coming from the wilderness, Hasting
herself
for
her beloved? Under the citron-
tree I
have
waked
thee,
There did
thy
mother pledge
thee,
There she gave
a
pledge
`that'
bare
thee
.
Who is this coming up
from the wilderness, leaning
on
her beloved? I
roused
you
under the apple
tree ;
there your
mother conceived
you;
there she travailed
and
brought
you
forth
.
Set me as a seal on
thy
heart, as a seal on
thine
arm ,
For strong as death is
love
, Sharp
as Sheol is
jealousy,
Its burnings
`
are '
burnings
of
fire
, a
flame
of Jah!
Set me as a seal over
your
heart, as a seal upon
your
arm .
For love
is
as
strong as death, its
jealousy
as unrelenting
as
Sheol .
Its sparks
are fiery
flames
, the
fiercest
blaze
of all.
Many
waters are
not
able
to
quench the
love ,
And
floods
do
not
wash
it away. If one
give all the wealth of his house for love, Treading
down
--
they
tread
upon
it
.
Mighty
waters cannot
quench love ;
rivers
cannot
sweep
it away. If a
man
were
to
give all the wealth of his house for love, his
offer
would
be
utterly
scorned
.
We have a little sister, and breasts she
hath
not ,
What do
we do for our sister ,
In
the day that
it
is told
of
her
?
We have a little sister, and her
breasts are
not yet
grown.
What shall
we do for our sister on
the day she
is spoken
for
?
If she is a wall, we build by
her
a palace
of silver. And
if she is a door, We fashion
by
her board-work
of cedar.
If she is a wall, we will
build a tower
of silver to
protect
her
. If she is a door, we will
enclose
her with
panels
of cedar.
I `
am '
a wall, and my breasts as
towers ,
Then
I have been
in his eyes as
one finding
peace.
I am a wall, and my breasts are
like
towers .
So
I have become
in his eyes like
one who
brings
peace.
Solomon hath
a vineyard in Baal-Hamon ,
He hath
given
the
vineyard
to keepers,
Each
bringeth
for its fruit a thousand silverlings;
Solomon had
a vineyard in Baal-hamon .
He leased
it
to the
tenants.
For its fruit ,
each
was
to
bring
a thousand shekels
of
silver.
My
vineyard
--
my own --
is before
me,
The thousand `is'
for thee
, O Solomon .
And the
two hundred for those keeping
its fruit. O
dweller
in
gardens!
But
my own vineyard
is mine
to
give;
the thousand shekels
are
for you
, O Solomon ,
and two hundred are
for those who
tend
its fruit.
The companions are attending
to
thy
voice ,
Cause
me to
hear .
Flee,
my
beloved,
and
be
like
to
a
roe,
You
who
dwell
in
the gardens,
my
companions are listening
for
your
voice .
Let
me hear it!
Or to
a young one
of
the
harts
on mountains of spices !
Come
away,
my
beloved,
and
be
like
a
gazelle
or a young stag
on the
mountains of spices .
