Scripture Text: Song of Solomon  4:1 – 3     (22a, page 181)

Verses 1 -3

Behold! You are beautiful, my darling companion.

Behold! You are beautiful.

Your eyes are doves behind your veil.

Your hair is like a flock of goats moving briskly down Mount Gilead.

Your teeth are like a flock of newly shorn sheep which have come up from the washing, each one bearing twins and bereaved of not one of them.

Like a scarlet ribbon are your lips, and your mouth is lovely.

Like the sliced opening of a pomegranate are your parted lips behind your veil.

Below are some selections from other versions

Why I Am Doing This

I have information that is valuable for people who are making decisions about sex, love, romance, marriage and relationships. Admittedly, sharing on these topics is not something I have been eager to do. But it is the right thing to do, so here I go jumping in with both feet. More about us.
