The Bride Confesses Her Love

She ^{▼▼The translators have added speaker identifications based on the gender and number of the Hebrew words}

2 Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth!
For your ^blove is better than wine;
3 your ^canointing oils are fragrant;
your ^dname is oil poured out;
therefore virgins love you.
4 ^eDraw me after you; ^flet us run.
^gThe king has brought me into his chambers.

Others

We will ^hexult and rejoice in you;
we will extol ⁱyour love more than wine;
rightly do they love you.

Song of Solomon 2:3-5

She

3 As an apple tree among the trees of the forest,
so is my ^jbeloved among the young men.
With great delight I sat ^kin his shadow,
and his ^lfruit was sweet to my taste.
4 He ^mbrought me to the banqueting house, ^{▼▼Hebrew the house of wine}
and his ^obanner over me was love.
5 Sustain me with ^praisins;
refresh me with apples,
^qfor I am sick with love.

Song of Solomon 5:8

8 I ^radjure you, O ^sdaughters of Jerusalem,
if you find my beloved,
that you tell him
^tI am sick with love.
