Latin
6like the morning star among the clouds,
like the full moon at the festal season,b*
7like the sun shining on the temple of the Most High,
like the rainbow gleaming in splendid clouds,*
8like roses in the days of the spring harvest,
like lilies by springs of water,
like a green shoot on Lebanon on a summer day,*
9like fire and incense in the censer,
like a vessel of hammered gold
studded with all kinds of precious stones,*
