1 The Song of Songs which is Solomon's.
The bride
Let him kiss me from the kisses
of his mouth,
because your breasts are better than wine,
and the aroma of your myrrh than all
aromatic herbs.
Your name is myrrh made new.
Because of this, the maidens have loved you.
They have drawn you. We shall run after you
into the aroma of your myrrh.
The bride describes to the maidens
the things about the groom
that he gave to her.
The king has brought me into
his chamber.
While the bride was talking
to the maidens. And they
said,
Let us leap for joy and rejoice
in you.
We shall love your breasts
more than wine.
The maidens call out to the groom
the name of the bride,
"Uprightness has come to love you!"
Uprightness has come to love you!
