Textus Receptus Bibles
Jay P. Green's Literal Translation 1993
| 6:1 | Where has your Beloved gone, most beautiful among women? Where has your Beloved turned? For we seek Him along with you. |
| 6:2 | My Beloved has gone down to His garden, to the terraces of spices, to feed in the gardens and to gather lilies. |
| 6:3 | I am my Beloved's, and my Beloved is mine. He feeds among the lilies. |
| 6:4 | O My love, you are as beautiful as Tirzah, as lovely as Jerusalem, awesome as bannered armies. |
| 6:5 | Turn away your eyes from Me, because they have overcome Me. Your hair is like a flock of goats that lie down from Gilead. |
| 6:6 | Your teeth are like a flock of ewes which come up from the washing place, of which they all are bearing twins, and barrenness is not among them. |
| 6:7 | Your temples behind your veil are like a piece of pomegranate. |
| 6:8 | Sixty of them are queens, and eighty concubines, and virgins without number. |
| 6:9 | But My dove, My perfect one is one alone . She is the only one to her mother; she is the choice of the one who bore her. The daughters saw her and called her blessed; the queens and the concubines saw her, and they praised her. |
| 6:10 | Who is she who looks down like the dawn, beautiful as the moon, clear as the sun, awesome as bannered armies ? |
| 6:11 | I went down to the garden of nut trees, to see the greenery of the ravine, to see whether the vine flowered and the pomegranates budded. |
| 6:12 | I did not know, but my soul set me on the chariots of My princely people. |
| 6:13 | Return, return, O Shulamite! Return, return, that we may gaze upon you. What will you see in the Shulamite? As it were the dance of two army camps. |
