Song of Songs 4 :: Brenton's English Septuagint (BES)

Sng 4:1

Sng 4:1Behold, thou art fair, my companion; behold, thou art fair; thine eyes are doves, beside thy veil: thy hair is as flocks of goats, that have appeared from Galaad.

Sng 4:2

Sng 4:2Thy teeth are as flocks of shorn sheep, that have gone up from the washing; all of them bearing twins, and there is not a barren one among them.

Sng 4:3

Sng 4:3Thy lips are as a thread of scarlet, and thy speech is comely: like the rind of a pomegranate is thy cheek without thy veil.

Sng 4:4

Sng 4:4Thy neck is as the tower of David, that was built for an armoury: a thousand shields hang upon it, and all darts of mighty men.

Sng 4:5

Sng 4:5Thy two breasts are as two twin fawns, that feed among the lilies.

Sng 4:6

Sng 4:6Until the day dawn, and the shadows depart, I will betake me to the mountain of myrrh, and to the hill of frankincense.

Sng 4:7

Sng 4:7Thou art all fair, my companion, and there is no spot in thee.

Sng 4:8

Sng 4:8Come from Libanus, my bride, come from Libanus: thou shalt come and pass from the top of Faith, from the top of Sanir and Hermon, from the lions' dens, from the mountains of the leopards.

Sng 4:9

Sng 4:9My sister, my spouse, thou hast ravished my heart; thou hast ravished my heart with one of thine eyes, with one chain of thy neck.

Sng 4:10

Sng 4:10How beautiful are thy breasts, my sister, my spouse! how much more beautiful are thy breasts than wine, and the smell of thy garments than all spices!

Sng 4:11

Sng 4:11Thy lips drop honeycomb, my spouse: honey and milk are under thy tongue; and the smell of thy garments is as the smell of Libanus.

Sng 4:12

Sng 4:12My sister, my spouse is a garden enclosed; a garden enclosed, a fountain sealed.

Sng 4:13

Sng 4:13Thy shoots are a garden of pomegranates, with the fruit of choice berries; camphor, with spikenard:

Sng 4:14

Sng 4:14spikenard and saffron, calamus and cinnamon; with all woods of Libanus, myrrh, aloes, with all chief spices:

Sng 4:15

Sng 4:15a fountain of a garden, and a well of water springing and gurgling from Libanus.

Sng 4:16

Sng 4:16Awake, O north wind; and come, O south; and blow through my garden, and let my spices flow out.
