Das Wort Bin Ich

The Song of Solomon

Unlocked Literal Bible 2017

- Kapitel 7 -

1
The woman’s lover speaking to her-How beautiful your feet appear in your sandals, prince’s daughter! The curves of your thighs are like jewels, the work of the hands of a master craftsman.
2
Your navel is like a round bowl; may it never lack mixed wine. Your belly is like a mound of wheat encircled with lilies.
3
Your two breasts are like two fawns, twins of a gazelle.

Longing

4
Your neck is like a tower of ivory; your eyes like the pools in Heshbon by the gate of Bath Rabbim. Your nose is like the tower in Lebanon that looks toward Damascus.
5
Your head on you is like Carmel; the hair on your head is dark purple. The king is held captive by its tresses.
6
How beautiful and lovely you are, beloved one, with your delights!

Your love makes me happy

7
Your height is like that of a date palm tree, and your breasts like clusters of fruit.
8
I thought, “I want to climb that palm tree; I will take hold of its branches.” May your breasts be like clusters of grapes, and may the fragrance of your nose be like apricots.
9
May your mouth be like the best wine, flowing smoothly to my beloved, gliding over our lips and teeth. The young woman speaking to her lover-
10
I am my beloved’s, and he desires me.
11
Come, my beloved, let us go out into the countryside; let us spend the night in the villages.

I want to give you my love

12
Let us rise early to go to the vineyards; let us see whether the vines have budded, whether their blossoms have opened, and whether the pomegranates are in flower. There I will give you my love.
13
The mandrakes give off their fragrance; at the door where we are staying are all sorts of choice fruits, new and old, that I have stored up for you, my beloved.
