Song 7 | ESV | STEP | How beautiful are your feet in sandals , O noble daughter ! Your rounded thighs are like jewels , the work of a master hand .

‏ Song of Solomon 7

1 How beautiful are your feet in sandals,
O ^anoble daughter!
Your rounded thighs are like ^bjewels,
the work of ^ca master hand.
2 Your navel is a rounded bowl
that never lacks mixed wine.
Your belly is a heap of wheat,
encircled with ^dlilies.
3 ^eYour two breasts are like two fawns,
twins of a gazelle.
4 Your ^fneck is like an ivory tower.
Your ^geyes are pools in ^hHeshbon,
by the gate of Bath-rabbim.
Your nose is like a tower of ⁱLebanon,
which looks toward ^jDamascus.
5 Your head crowns you like ^kCarmel,
and your ^lflowing locks are like purple;
a king is held captive in the tresses.
6 ^mHow beautiful and ⁿpleasant you are,
O loved one, with all your delights! ^{▼▼Or among delights}
7 Your stature is like a palm tree,
and your breasts are like its clusters.
8 I say I will climb the palm tree
and lay hold of its fruit.
Oh may your breasts be like ^pclusters of the vine,
and the scent of your breath like apples,
9 and your ^qmouth ^{▼▼Hebrew palate} like the best wine.

She

It goes down smoothly for my beloved,
gliding over lips and teeth. ^{▼▼Septuagint, Syriac, Vulgate; Hebrew causing the lips of sleepers to speak}
10 ^tI am my beloved’s,
^uand his desire is for me.

The Bride Gives Her Love

11 ^vCome, my beloved,
let us go out into the fields
and lodge in the villages; ^{▼▼Or among the henna plants}
12 let us go out early to the vineyards
^xand see whether the vines have budded,
whether ^ythe grape blossoms have opened
and the pomegranates are in bloom.
There I will give you my love.
13 ^zThe mandrakes give forth fragrance,
and beside our doors are all choice fruits,
^aanew as well as old,
which I have laid up for you, O my beloved.
