The Song of Solomon
CHAPTER 1
Song of Solomon 1:1
1 The song of songs, which is Solomon's. Song of Solomon 1:2
2 Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth: for thy love is better than
wine.
Song of Solomon 1:3
3 Because of the savour of thy good ointments thy name is as ointment poured
forth, therefore do the virgins love thee. Song of Solomon 1:4
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 remember thy love more than wine:
the upright love thee. Song of Solomon 1:5
5 I am black, but comely, O ye daughters of Jerusalem, as the tents of Kedar,
as the curtains of Solomon.
Song of Solomon 1:6
6 Look not upon me, because I am black, because the sun hath looked upon me:
my mother's children were angry with me; they made me the keeper of the
vineyards; but mine own vineyard have I not kept. Song of Solomon 1:7
7 Tell me, O thou whom my soul loveth, where thou feedest, where thou makest
thy flock to rest at noon: for why should I be as one that turneth aside by
the flocks of thy companions?
Song of Solomon 1:8
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. Song of
Solomon 1:9
9 I have compared thee, O my love, to a company of horses in Pharaoh's
chariots.
Song of Solomon 1:10
10 Thy cheeks are comely with rows of jewels, thy neck with chains of gold.
Song of Solomon 1:11
11 We will make thee borders of gold with studs of silver. Song of Solomon 1:12
12 While the king sitteth at his table, my spikenard sendeth forth the smell
thereof.
Song of Solomon 1:13
13 A bundle of myrrh is my wellbeloved unto me; he shall lie all night betwixt
my breasts.
Song of Solomon 1:14
14 My beloved is unto me as a cluster of camphire in the vineyards of Engedi.
Song of Solomon 1:15
15 Behold, thou art fair, my love; behold, thou art fair; thou hast doves'
eyes.
Song of Solomon 1:16
16 Behold, thou art fair, my beloved, yea, pleasant: also our bed is green.
Song of Solomon 1:17
17 The beams of our house are cedar, and our rafters of fir. CHAPTER 2
Song of Solomon 2:1
1 I am the rose of Sharon, and the lily of the valleys. Song of Solomon 2:2
2 As the lily among thorns, so is my love among the daughters. Song of Solomon
2:3
3 As the apple tree among the trees of the wood, so is my beloved among the
sons. I sat down under his shadow with great delight, and his fruit was sweet
to my taste.
Song of Solomon 2:4
4 He brought me to the banqueting house, and his banner over me was love. Song
of Solomon 2:5
5 Stay me with flagons, comfort me with apples: for I am sick of love. Song of
Solomon 2:6
6 His left hand is under my head, and his right hand doth embrace me. Song of
Solomon 2:7
7 I charge you, O ye daughters of Jerusalem, by the roes, and by the hinds of
the field, that ye stir not up, nor awake my love, till he please. Song of
Solomon 2:8
8 The voice of my beloved! behold, he cometh leaping upon the mountains,
skipping upon the hills.
Song of Solomon 2:9
9 My beloved is like a roe or a young hart: behold, he standeth behind our
wall, he looketh forth at the windows, shewing himself through the lattice.
Song of Solomon 2:10
10 My beloved spake, and said unto me, Rise up, my love, my fair one, and come
away.
Song of Solomon 2:11
11 For, lo, the winter is past, the rain is over and gone; Song of Solomon 2:12
12 The flowers appear on the earth; the time of the singing of birds is come,
and the voice of the turtle is heard in our land; Song of Solomon 2:13
13 The fig tree putteth forth her green figs, and the vines with the tender
grape give a good smell. Arise, my love, my fair one, and come away. Song of
Solomon 2:14
14 O my dove, that art in the clefts of the rock, in the secret places of the
stairs, let me see thy countenance, let me hear thy voice; for sweet is thy
voice, and thy countenance is comely. Song of Solomon 2:15
15 Take us the foxes, the little foxes, that spoil the vines: for our vines
have tender grapes.
Song of Solomon 2:16
16 My beloved is mine, and I am his: he feedeth among the lilies. Song of
Solomon 2:17
17 Until the day break, and the shadows flee away, turn, my beloved, and be
thou like a roe or a young hart upon the mountains of Bether. CHAPTER 3

found him not.
Song of Solomon 3:2
2 I will rise now, and go about the city in the streets, and in the broad ways
I will seek him whom my soul loveth: I sought him, but I found him not. Song
of Solomon 3:3
3 The watchmen that go about the city found me: to whom I said, Saw ye him
whom my soul loveth?
Song of Solomon 3:4
4 It was but a little that I passed from them, but I found him whom my soul
loveth: I held him, and would not let him go, until I had brought him into my
mother's house, and into the chamber of her that conceived me. Song of Solomon
3:5
5 I charge you, O ye daughters of Jerusalem, by the roes, and by the hinds of
the field, that ye stir not up, nor awake my love, till he please. Song of
Solomon 3:6
6 Who is this that cometh out of the wilderness like pillars of smoke,
perfumed with myrrh and frankincense, with all powders of the merchant? Song
of Solomon 3:7
7 Behold his bed, which is Solomon's; threescore valiant men are about it, of
the valiant of Israel.
Song of Solomon 3:8
8 They all hold swords, being expert in war: every man hath his sword upon his
thigh because of fear in the night. Song of Solomon 3:9
9 King Solomon made himself a chariot of the wood of Lebanon. Song of Solomon
3:10
10 He made the pillars thereof of silver, the bottom thereof of gold, the
covering of it of purple, the midst thereof being paved with love, for the
daughters of Jerusalem.
Song of Solomon 3:11

wherewith his mother crowned him in the day of his espousals, and in the day
of the gladness of his heart.
CHAPTER 4
Song of Solomon 4:1
1 Behold, thou art fair, my love; behold, thou art fair; thou hast doves' eyes
within thy locks: thy hair is as a flock of goats, that appear from mount
Gilead.
Song of Solomon 4:2
2 Thy teeth are like a flock of sheep that are even shorn, which came up from
the washing; whereof every one bear twins, and none is barren among them.
Song of Solomon 4:3
3 Thy lips are like a thread of scarlet, and thy speech is comely: thy temples
are like a piece of a pomegranate within thy locks. Song of Solomon 4:4
4 Thy neck is like the tower of David builded for an armoury, whereon there
hang a thousand bucklers, all shields of mighty men. Song of Solomon 4:5
5 Thy two breasts are like two young roes that are twins, which feed among the
lilies.
Song of Solomon 4:6
6 Until the day break, and the shadows flee away, I will get me to the
mountain of myrrh, and to the hill of frankincense. Song of Solomon 4:7
7 Thou art all fair, my love; there is no spot in thee. Song of Solomon 4:8
8 Come with me from Lebanon, my spouse, with me from Lebanon: look from the
top of Amana, from the top of Shenir and Hermon, from the lions' dens, from
the mountains of the leopards.
Song of Solomon 4:9
9 Thou hast ravished my heart, my sister, my spouse; thou hast ravished my
heart with one of thine eyes, with one chain of thy neck. Song of Solomon 4:10
10 How fair is thy love, my sister, my spouse! how much better is thy love
than wine! and the smell of thine ointments than all spices! Song of Solomon
4:11
11 Thy lips, O my spouse, drop as the honeycomb: honey and milk are under thy
tongue; and the smell of thy garments is like the smell of Lebanon. Song of
Solomon 4:12
12 A garden inclosed is my sister, my spouse; a spring shut up, a fountain
sealed.
Song of Solomon 4:13
13 Thy plants are an orchard of pomegranates, with pleasant fruits; camphire,
with spikenard,
Song of Solomon 4:14
14 Spikenard and saffron; calamus and cinnamon, with all trees of
frankincense; myrrh and aloes, with all the chief spices: Song of Solomon 4:15
15 A fountain of gardens, a well of living waters, and streams from Lebanon.
Song of Solomon 4:16
16 Awake, O north wind; and come, thou south; blow upon my garden, that the
spices thereof may flow out. Let my beloved come into his garden, and eat his
pleasant fruits.
