Song of Solomon 6
Ready to read
1
Where has your beloved gone, Oⓐ most beautiful among women? Where has your beloved turned, that we may seek him with you?
2
My beloved has gone down to hisⓑ garden toⓒ the beds of spices, toⓓ graze[1] in the gardens and to gatherⓔ lilies.
3
ⓕ I am my beloved's and my beloved is mine; he grazes among the lilies.
4
You are beautiful asⓖ Tirzah,ⓗ my love, ⓘlovely asⓙ Jerusalem, ⓚawesome as an army with banners.
5
Turn away your eyes from me, for they overwhelm me — ⓛYour hair is like a flock of goats leaping down the slopes of Gilead.
6
ⓜ Your teeth are like a flock of ewes that have come up from the washing; all of them bear twins; not one among them has lost its young.
7
ⓝ Your cheeks are like halves of a pomegranate behind your veil.
8
There areⓞ sixtyⓟ queens and eightyⓠ concubines, andⓡ virgins without number.
9
Myⓢ dove, myⓣ perfect one, is the only one, the only one of her mother, pure toⓤ her who bore her. ⓥThe young women saw her and called her blessed; ⓦthe queens andⓧ concubines also, and they praised her.
10
ⓨ “Who is this who looks down like the dawn, beautiful as the moon, bright as the sun, ⓩawesome as an army with banners?”
11
I went down to the nut orchard to look atⓐ the blossoms of the valley, ⓑto see whether the vines had budded, whether the pomegranates were in bloom.
12
ⓒ Before I was aware, my desire set me amongⓓ the chariots of my kinsman, a prince.[2]
13
[3] Return, return, Oⓔ Shulammite, return, return, that we may look upon you. He Why should you look uponⓕ the Shulammite, as uponⓖ a dance beforeⓗ two armies?[4]
