Song of Solomon 7:6–13

6 How beautifulk you are and how pleasing,

my love, with your delights!l

7 Your stature is like that of the palm,

and your breastsm like clusters of fruit.

8 I said, “I will climb the palm tree;

I will take hold of its fruit.”

May your breasts be like clusters of grapes on the vine,

the fragrance of your breath like apples,n

9 and your mouth like the best wine.

She

May the wine go straight to my beloved,o

flowing gently over lips and teeth.b

10 I belong to my beloved,

and his desirep is for me.q

11 Come, my beloved, let us go to the countryside,

let us spend the night in the villages.c

12 Let us go early to the vineyardsr

to see if the vines have budded,s

if their blossomst have opened,

and if the pomegranatesu are in bloomv—

there I will give you my love.

13 The mandrakesw send out their fragrance,

and at our door is every delicacy,

both new and old,

that I have stored up for you, my beloved.x
