Song of Solomon 7 (WEBP)
[1] How beautiful are your feet in sandals, prince’s daughter! Your rounded thighs are like jewels, the work of the hands of a skillful workman.
[2] Your body is like a round goblet, no mixed wine is wanting. Your waist is like a heap of wheat, set about with lilies.
[3] Your two breasts are like two fawns, that are twins of a roe.
[4] Your neck is like an ivory tower. Your eyes are like the pools in Heshbon by the gate of Bathrabbim. Your nose is like the tower of Lebanon which looks toward Damascus.
[5] Your head on you is like Carmel. The hair of your head like purple. The king is held captive in its tresses.
[6] How beautiful and how pleasant you are, love, for delights!
[7] This, your stature, is like a palm tree, your breasts like its fruit.
[8] I said, “I will climb up into the palm tree. I will take hold of its fruit.” Let your breasts be like clusters of the vine, the smell of your breath like apples.
[9] Your mouth is like the best wine, that goes down smoothly for my beloved, gliding through the lips of those who are asleep.
[10] I am my beloved’s. His desire is toward me.
[11] Come, my beloved! Let’s go out into the field. Let’s lodge in the villages.
[12] Let’s go early up to the vineyards. Let’s see whether the vine has budded, its blossom is open, and the pomegranates are in flower. There I will give you my love.
[13] The mandrakes produce fragrance. At our doors are all kinds of precious fruits, new and old, which I have stored up for you, my beloved.

[1] How beautiful H3302 (8804) are thy feet H6471 with shoes H5275, O prince’s H5081 daughter H1323! the joints H2542 of thy thighs H3409 [are] like jewels H2481, the work H4639 of the hands H3027 of a cunning workman H542.
[2] Thy navel H8326 [is like] a round H5469 goblet H101, [which] wanteth H2637 (8799) not liquor H4197: thy belly H990 [is like] an heap H6194 of wheat H2406 set about H5473 (8803) with lilies H7799.
[3] Thy two H8147 breasts H7699 [are] like two H8147 young H6082 roes H6646 [that are] twins H8380.
[4] Thy neck H6677 [is] as a tower H4026 of ivory H8127; thine eyes H5869 [like] the fishpools H1295 in Heshbon H2809, by the gate H8179 of Bathrabbim H1337: thy nose H639 [is] as the tower H4026 of Lebanon H3844 which looketh H6822 (8802) toward H6440 Damascus H1834.
[5] Thine head H7218 upon thee [is] like Carmel H3760, and the hair H1803 of thine head H7218 like purple H713; the king H4428 [is] held H631 (8803) in the galleries H7298.
[6] How fair H3302 (8804) and how pleasant H5276 (8804) art thou, O love H160, for delights H8588!
[7] This thy stature H6967 is like H1819 (8804) to a palm tree H8558, and thy breasts H7699 to clusters H811 [of grapes].
[8] I said H559 (8804), I will go up H5927 (8799) to the palm tree H8558, I will take hold H270 (8799) of the boughs H5577 thereof: now also thy breasts H7699 shall be as clusters H811 of the vine H1612, and the smell H7381 of thy nose H639 like apples H8598;
[9] And the roof of thy mouth H2441 like the best H2896 wine H3196 for my beloved H1730, that goeth H1980 (8802) [down] sweetly H4339, causing the lips H8193 of those that are asleep H3463 to speak H1680 (8802).
[10] I [am] my beloved’s H1730, and his desire H8669 [is] toward me.
[11] Come H3212 (8798), my beloved H1730, let us go forth H3318 (8799) into the field H7704; let us lodge H3885 (8799) in the villages H3723.
[12] Let us get up early H7925 (8686) to the vineyards H3754; let us see H7200 (8799) if the vine H1612 flourish H6524 (8804), [whether] the tender grape H5563 appear H6605 (8765), [and] the pomegranates H7416 bud forth H5132 (8689): there will I give H5414 (8799) thee my loves H1730.
[13] The mandrakes H1736 give H5414 (8804) a smell H7381, and at our gates H6607 [are] all manner of pleasant H4022 [fruits], new H2319 and old H3465, [which] I have laid up H6845 (8804) for thee, O my beloved H1730.
Young’s Literal Translation
Song of Solomon 7 (YLT)
[1] As the chorus of ‘Mahanaim.’ How beautiful were thy feet with sandals, O daughter of Nadib. The turnings of thy sides are as ornaments, Work of the hands of an artificer.
[2] Thy waist is a basin of roundness, It lacketh not the mixture, Thy body a heap of wheat, fenced with lilies,
[3] Thy two breasts as two young ones, twins of a roe,
[4] Thy neck as a tower of the ivory, Thine eyes pools in Heshbon, near the gate of Bath-Rabbim, Thy face as a tower of Lebanon looking to Damascus,
[5] Thy head upon thee as Carmel, And the locks of thy head as purple, The king is bound with the flowings!
[6] How fair and how pleasant hast thou been, O love, in delights.
[7] This thy stature hath been like to a palm, And thy breasts to clusters.
[8] I said, ‘Let me go up on the palm, Let me lay hold on its boughs, Yea, let thy breasts be, I pray thee, as clusters of the vine, And the fragrance of thy face as citrons,
[9] And thy palate as the good wine-‘Flowing to my beloved in uprightness, Strengthening the lips of the aged!
[10] I am my beloved’s, and on me is his desire.
[11] Come, my beloved, we go forth to the field,
[12] We lodge in the villages, we go early to the vineyards, We see if the vine hath flourished, The sweet smelling-flower hath opened. The pomegranates have blossomed, There do I give to thee my loves;
[13] The mandrakes have given fragrance, And at our openings all pleasant things, New, yea, old, my beloved, I laid up for thee!
