The Beloved about Her Lover:
1:12 While the king was at his banqueting table, 3
my nard 4 gave forth its fragrance. 5
1:13 My beloved is like a fragrant pouch of myrrh 6
spending the night 7 between my breasts.
1:14 My beloved is like a cluster of henna blossoms 8
in the vineyards of En-Gedi. 9
The Lover to His Beloved:
1:15 Oh, 10 how beautiful you are, my beloved! 11
Oh, how beautiful you are!
Your eyes 12 are like doves! 13
The Beloved to Her Lover:
1:16 Oh, how handsome you are, my lover! 14
Oh, 15 how delightful 16 you are!
The lush foliage 17 is our canopied bed; 18
1:17 the cedars are the beams of our bedroom chamber;
the pines are the rafters of our bedroom.
