engKJVCPB: Song of Solomon 1

=> Chapters

[1] The song of songs, which is Solomon’s.

[2] Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth:

For thy love is better than wine.

[3] Because of the savour of thy good ointments

Thy name is as ointment poured forth,

Therefore do the virgins love thee.

[4] Draw me, we will run after thee:

The king hath brought me into his chambers:

We will be glad and rejoice in thee,

We will remember thy love more than wine:

The upright love thee.

[5] I am black, but comely, O ye daughters of Jerusalem,

As the tents of Kedar, as the curtains of Solomon.

[6] Look not upon me, because I am black,

Because the sun hath looked upon me:

My mother’s children were angry with me;

They made me the keeper of the vineyards;

But mine own vineyard have I not kept.

[7] Tell me, O thou whom my soul loveth,

Where thou feedest, where thou makest thy flock to rest at noon:

For why should I be as one that turneth aside by the flocks of thy companions?

[8] If thou know not, O thou fairest among women,

Go thy way forth by the footsteps of the flock,

And feed thy kids beside the shepherds’ tents.

[9] I have compared thee, O my love,

To a company of horses in Pharaoh’s chariots.

[10] Thy cheeks are comely with rows of jewels,

Thy neck with chains of gold.

[11] We will make thee borders of gold

With studs of silver.

[12] While the king sitteth at his table,

My spikenard sendeth forth the smell thereof.

[13] A bundle of myrrh is my well-beloved unto me;

He shall lie all night betwixt my breasts.

[14] My beloved is unto me as a cluster of camphire

In the vineyards of En-gedi.

[15] Behold, thou art fair, my love; behold, thou art fair;

Thou hast doves’ eyes.

[16] Behold, thou art fair, my beloved, yea, pleasant:

Also our bed is green.

[17] The beams of our house are cedar,

And our rafters of fir.
