Song of Solomon 7:5-9
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 7
5 Your head crowns you like Carmel, And the flowing hair of your head is like purple threads; The king is captivated by your tresses. 6 How beautiful and how delightful you are, My love, with all your delights! 7 Your stature is like a palm tree, And your breasts are like its clusters. 8 I said, ‘I will climb the palm tree, I will grasp its fruit stalks.’ Oh, may your breasts be like clusters of the vine, And the fragrance of your breath like apples,
9
And your mouth like the best wine!' 'It goes down smoothly for my beloved, Flowing gently through the lips of those who are asleep.
King James Version
