Song of Solomon 1:7-14
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 1
7Tell 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. 10Your 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. 13My beloved is to me a pouch of myrrh Which lies all night between my breasts. 14My beloved is to me a cluster of henna blossoms In the vineyards of Engedi.'King James Version
Chapter 1
7Tell 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? 8If 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. 9I have compared thee, O my love, to a company of horses in Pharaoh's chariots. 10Thy cheeks are comely with rows of jewels, thy neck with chains of gold. 11We will make thee borders of gold with studs of silver.Christian Standard Bible
8If you do not know, most beautiful of women, follow the tracks of the flock, and pasture your young goats near the shepherds' tents.
9I compare you, my darling, to a mare among Pharaoh's chariots.
10Your cheeks are beautiful with jewelry, your neck with its necklace.
11We will make gold jewelry for you, accented with silver.
12While the king is on his couch, my perfume releases its fragrance.
13The one I love is a sachet of myrrh to me, spending the night between my breasts.
14The one I love is a cluster of henna blossoms to me, in the vineyards of En-gedi.
New Living Translation
8If you don’t know, O most beautiful woman, follow the trail of my flock, and graze your young goats by the shepherds’ tents.
9You are as exciting, my darling, as a mare among Pharaoh’s stallions.
10How lovely are your cheeks; your earrings set them afire! How lovely is your neck, enhanced by a string of jewels.
11We will make for you earrings of gold and beads of silver.
