| Song-of-Solomon 1:1 | The Song of songs, which is Solomon's. | Let him kiss me with the kiss of his mouth: for thy breasts are better than wine, |
| Song-of-Solomon 1:2 | Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth; For thy love is better than wine. | Smelling sweet of the best ointments. Thy name is as oil poured out: therefore young maidens have loved thee. |
| Song-of-Solomon 1:3 | Thine oils have a goodly fragrance; Thy name is [as] oil poured forth; Therefore do the virgins love thee. | Draw me: we will run after thee to the odour of thy ointments. The king hath brought me into his storerooms: we will be glad and rejoice in thee, remembering thy breasts more than wine: the righteous love thee. |
| Song-of-Solomon 1:4 | Draw me; we will run after thee: The king hath brought me into his chambers; We will be glad and rejoice in thee; We will make mention of thy love more than of wine: Rightly do they love thee. | I am black but beautiful, O ye daughters of Jerusalem, as the tents of Cedar, as the curtains of Solomon. |
| Song-of-Solomon 1:5 | I am black, but comely, Oh ye daughters of Jerusalem, As the tents of Kedar, As the curtains of Solomon. | Do not consider me that I am brown, because the sun hath altered my colour: the sons of my mother have fought against me, they have made me the keeper in the vineyards: my vineyard I have not kept. |
| Song-of-Solomon 1:6 | Look not upon me, because I am swarthy, Because the sun hath scorched me. My mother's sons were incensed against me; They made me keeper of the vineyards; [But] mine own vineyard have I not kept. | Shew me, O thou whom my soul loveth, where thou feedest, where thou liest in the midday, lest I begin to wander after the flocks of thy companions. |
| Song-of-Solomon 1:7 | Tell me, O thou whom my soul loveth, Where thou feedest [thy flock], Where thou makest [it] to rest at noon: For why should I be as one that is veiled Beside the flocks of thy companions? | If thou know not thyself, O fairest among women, go forth, and follow after the steps of the flocks, and feed thy kids beside the tents of the shepherds. |
| Song-of-Solomon 1:8 | If thou know not, O thou fairest among women, Go thy way forth by the footsteps of the flock, And feed thy kids beside the shepherds' tents. | To my company of horsemen, in Pharao's chariots, have I likened thee, O my love. |
| Song-of-Solomon 1:9 | I have compared thee, O my love, To a steed in Pharaoh's chariots. | Thy cheeks are beautiful as the turtledove's, thy neck as jewels. |
| Song-of-Solomon 1:10 | Thy cheeks are comely with plaits [of hair], Thy neck with strings of jewels. | We will make thee chains of gold, inlaid with silver. |
| Song-of-Solomon 1:11 | We will make thee plaits of gold With studs of silver. | While the king was at his repose, my spikenard sent forth the odour thereof. |
| Song-of-Solomon 1:12 | While the king sat at his table, My spikenard sent forth its fragrance. | A bundle of myrrh is my beloved to me, he shall abide between my breasts. |
| Song-of-Solomon 1:13 | My beloved is unto me [as] a bundle of myrrh, That lieth betwixt my breasts. | A cluster of cypress my love is to me, in the vineyards of Engaddi. |
| Song-of-Solomon 1:14 | My beloved is unto me [as] a cluster of henna-flowers In the vineyards of En-gedi. | Behold thou art fair, O my love, behold thou art fair, thy eyes are as those of doves. |
| Song-of-Solomon 1:15 | Behold, thou art fair, my love; Behold thou art fair; Thine eyes are [as] doves. | Behold thou art fair, my beloved, and comely. Our bed is flourishing. |
| Song-of-Solomon 1:16 | Behold, thou art fair, my beloved, yea, pleasant: Also our couch is green. | The beams of our houses are of cedar, our rafters of cypress trees. |
| Song-of-Solomon 1:17 | The beams of our house are cedars, [And] our rafters are firs. | |
