KING JAMES VERSION (KJV)


1  Whither is thy beloved gone, O thou fairest among women? whither is thy beloved turned aside? that we may seek him with thee.

2  My beloved is gone down into his garden, to the beds of spices, to feed in the gardens, and to gather lilies.

3  I am my beloved's, and my beloved is mine: he feedeth among the lilies.

4  Thou art beautiful, O my love, as Tirzah, comely as Jerusalem, terrible as an army with banners.

5  Turn away thine eyes from me, for they have overcome me: thy hair is as a flock of goats that appear from Gilead.

6  Thy teeth are as a flock of sheep which go up from the washing, whereof every one beareth twins, and there is not one barren among them.

7  As a piece of a pomegranate are thy temples within thy locks.

8  There are threescore queens, and fourscore concubines, and virgins without number.

9  My dove, my undefiled is but one; she is the only one of her mother, she is the choice one of her that bare her. The daughters saw her, and blessed her; yea, the queens and the concubines, and they praised her.

10  Who is she that looketh forth as the morning, fair as the moon, clear as the sun, and terrible as an army with banners?

11  I went down into the garden of nuts to see the fruits of the valley, and to see whether the vine flourished, and the pomegranates budded.

12  Or ever I was aware, my soul made me like the chariots of Amminadib.

13  Return, return, O Shulamite; return, return, that we may look upon thee. What will ye see in the Shulamite? As it were the company of two armies.

5  Turne away thine eyes from me, for they haue ouercome me: thy haire is a flocke of goates, that appeare from Gilead.

6  Thy teeth are as a flocke of sheepe which goe vp from the washing, wherof euery one beareth twinnes, and there is not one barren among them.

7  As a piece of a pomegranat are thy temples within thy lockes.

8  There are threescore Queenes, and fourescore concubines, and virgins without number.

9  My doue, my vndefiled is but one; she is the only one of her mother, she is the choice one of her that bare her: The daughters sawe her, and blessed her; yea the Queenes and the concubins, and they praysed her.

10  ¶ Who is she that looketh forth as the morning, faire as the moone, cleare as the sunne, and terrible as an armie with banners?
