Song of Solomon 7:7-13 ▼

7 |Your stature is like a palm tree, And your breasts are [like its] clusters.

8 |I said, 'I will climb the palm tree, I will take hold of its fruit stalks.' Oh, may your breasts be like clusters of the vine, And the fragrance of your breath like apples,

9 And your mouth like the best wine!| |It goes [down] smoothly for my beloved, Flowing gently [through] the lips of those who fall asleep.

10 |I am my beloved's, And his desire is for me.

11 |Come, my beloved, let us go out into the country, Let us spend the night in the villages.

12 |Let us rise early [and go] to the vineyards; Let us see whether the vine has budded [And its] blossoms have opened, [And whether] the pomegranates have bloomed. There I will give you my love.

13 |The mandrakes have given forth fragrance; And over our doors are all choice [fruits], Both new and old, Which I have saved up for you, my beloved.
