Song of Songs 1:8-11 - The Man Speaks To The Woman
8 (The Bridegroom)
“If you do not know [where your lover is],
O you fairest among women,
Run along, follow the tracks of the flock,
And pasture your young goats
By the tents of the shepherds.
9
“To me, my love, you are like
My [favorite] mare among the chariots of Pharaoh.
“Your cheeks are lovely with ornaments,
Your neck with strings of jewels.”
“We will make for you chains and ornaments of gold,
[Studded] with beads of silver.”
