Where has your beloved turned,
That we may seek him with you?”

“My beloved has gone down to his egarden,To the fbeds of balsam,
To gpasture his flock in the gardens
And gather hlilies.
3 i“I am my beloved’s and my beloved is mine,

l“You are as beautiful as mTirzah, my darling,As nlovely as oJerusalem,
As pawesome as ▼
▼ Lit bannered ones
an army with banners.5“Turn your eyes away from me,
For they have confused me;
rYour hair is like a flock of goats
That have descended from Gilead.
6 s“Your teeth are like a flock of ewes
Which have come up from their washing,
All of which bear twins,
And not one among them has ▼
▼ Or miscarried
lost her young.7 u“Your temples are like a slice of a pomegranate
Behind your veil.
8“There are sixty vqueens and eighty concubines,
And ▼
▼ Or virgins
,
xmaidens without number;9 But ymy dove, my perfect one, is ▼
▼ Lit one
unique:She is her mother’s ▼
▼ Lit one
only daughter;She is the pure child of the one who bore her.
The ▼
▼ Lit daughters
,
acmaidens saw her and called her blessed,The adqueens and the concubines also, and they praised her, saying,
10‘Who is this that ▼
▼ Lit looks down
grows like the dawn,As beautiful as the full afmoon,
As pure agas the sun,
As ahawesome as ▼
▼ Lit bannered ones
an army with banners?’11“I went down to the orchard of nut trees
To see the blossoms of the valley,
To see whether ajthe vine had budded
Or the akpomegranates had bloomed.
12“Before I was aware, my soul set me
Over the chariots of ▼
▼ Another reading is Ammi-nadib
my noble people.”13 ▼

▼
▼ BRIDEGROOM
“Why should you gaze at the Shulammite,As at the apdance of ▼
▼ Or Mahanaim
,
arthe two companies?
