Song of Solomon 1:7-14
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 1
7 Tell me, you whom my soul loves, Where do you pasture your flock, Where do you have it lie down at noon? For why should I be like one who veils herself Beside the flocks of your companions?' 8 'If you yourself do not know, Most beautiful among women, Go out on the trail of the flock, And pasture your young goats By the tents of the shepherds. 9 'To me, my darling, you are like My mare among the chariots of Pharaoh. 10 Your cheeks are delightful with jewelry, Your neck with strings of beads.' 11 'We will make for you jewelry of gold With beads of silver.' 12 'While the king was at his table, My perfume gave forth its fragrance. 13 My beloved is to me a pouch of myrrh Which lies all night between my breasts. 14 My beloved is to me a cluster of henna blossoms In the vineyards of Engedi.'King James Version
Chapter 1
7 Tell me, O thou whom my soul loveth, where thou feedest, where thou makest thy flock to rest at noon: for why should I be as one that turneth aside by the flocks of thy companions? 8 If thou know not, O thou fairest among women, go thy way forth by the footsteps of the flock, and feed thy kids beside the shepherds' tents. 9 I have compared thee, O my love, to a company of horses in Pharaoh's chariots. 10 Thy cheeks are comely with rows of jewels, thy neck with chains of gold. 11 We will make thee borders of gold with studs of silver.Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 1
7 Tell me, you whom I love: Where do you pasture your sheep? Where do you let them rest at noon? Why should I be like one who veils herself beside the flocks of your companions?
8
If you do not know, most beautiful of women, follow the tracks of the flock, and pasture your young goats near the shepherds' tents.
9
I compare you, my darling, to a mare among Pharaoh's chariots.
10
Your cheeks are beautiful with jewelry, your neck with its necklace.
11
We will make gold jewelry for you, accented with silver.
12
While the king is on his couch, my perfume releases its fragrance.
13
The one I love is a sachet of myrrh to me, spending the night between my breasts.
14
The one I love is a cluster of henna blossoms to me, in the vineyards of En-gedi.
New Living Translation
Chapter 1
7 Tell me, my love, where are you leading your flock today? Where will you rest your sheep at noon? For why should I wander like a prostitute among your friends and their flocks?
8
If you don't know, O most beautiful woman, follow the trail of my flock, and graze your young goats by the shepherds' tents.
9
You are as exciting, my darling, as a mare among Pharaoh's stallions.
10
How lovely are your cheeks; your earrings set them afire! How lovely is your neck, enhanced by a string of jewels.
11
We will make for you earrings of gold and beads of silver.
