rivers cannot sweep it away.

If one were to give

all the wealth of one’s house for love,

it would be utterly scorned.

7 Many waters cannot quench love,

neither can floods drown it.

If a man offered for love

all the wealth of his house,

he would be utterly despised.

7 Many waters cannot quench love, Neither can the floods drown it: If a man would give all the substance of his house for love, It would utterly be contemned.

If a man would give for love

All the wealth of his house,

It would be utterly despised.

If a man offered everything in his house for love,

people would totally reject it.

people would utterly despise him. 

7 Mighty waters cannot extinguish love;

rivers cannot sweep it away.

If a man were to give all his wealth for love,

it would be utterly scorned.

all the wealth of one’s house,

Rivers can’t drown it.

Suppose someone offers

all of his wealth to buy love.

That won’t even come close to being enough.”

Nor will rivers overflow it;

If a man were to give all the riches of his house for love,

It would be utterly despised.”
