Song of Songs 6
Mutual Delight In Each Other
O most beautiful among women?
Where has your beloved turned,
That we may seek him with you?”
To the beds of balsam,
To pasture his flock in the gardens
And gather lilies.
He who pastures his flock among the lilies.”
As lovely as Jerusalem,
As awesome as an army with banners.
For they have confused me;
Your hair is like a flock of goats
That have descended from Gilead.
Which have come up from their washing,
All of which bear twins,
And not one among them has lost her young.
Behind your veil.
And maidens without number;
She is her mother’s only daughter;
She is the pure child of the one who bore her.
The maidens saw her and called her blessed,
The queens and the concubines also, and they praised her, saying,
As beautiful as the full moon,
As pure as the sun,
As awesome as an army with banners?’
To see the blossoms of the valley,
To see whether the vine had budded
Or the pomegranates had bloomed.
Over the chariots of my noble people.”
Come back, come back, that we may gaze at you!”
“Why should you gaze at the Shulammite,
As at the dance of the two companies?
