NASB Bible (with Strong's Numbers)

Song of Solomon 8

The Lovers Speak

1

"Ohh4310h5414 that you were like a brotherh251 to me Who nursedh3243 at my mother'sh517 breastsh7699a. If I foundh4672 you outdoorsh2351, I would kissh5401a you; Noh3808 one would despiseh936 me, eitherh1571.

2

"I would leadh5090a you and  abringh935 you Into the househ1004 of my motherh517, who used to instructh3925 me; I would giveh8248 you spicedh7544 wineh3196 to drinkh8248 from the juiceh6071 of my pomegranatesh7416.

3

"Let  ahis lefth8040 handh8040 be underh8478 my headh7218 And his righth3225 handh3225 embraceh2263 me."

4

1 aI want you to swearh7650, O daughtersh1323 of Jerusalemh3389,  2Do not arouseh5782 or awakenh5782 my loveh160 Untilh5704  3she pleasesh2654a."

5

1 aWhoh4310 is thish384 comingh5927 up from the wildernessh4057b Leaningh7514b on her belovedh1730?"

2Beneathh8478 the  3 bappleh8598 treeh8598 I awakenedh5782 you; Thereh8033 your motherh517 was in laborh2254a with you, Thereh8033 she was in laborh2254a and gaveh3205 you birthh3205.

6

"Puth7760 me like a  1sealh2368 overh5921 your hearth3820, Like a  asealh2368 on your armh2220. For loveh160 is as strongh5794 as deathh4194,  2 bJealousyh7068 is as severeh7186 as Sheolh7585; Its flashesh7565 are flashesh7565 of fireh784,  3The very flameh7957 of the LORDh3050.

7

"Manyh7227a watersh4325 cannoth3201h3808 quenchh3518 loveh160, Norh3808 will riversh5104 overflowh7857 it;  aIfh518 a manh376 were to giveh5414 allh3605 the richesh1952 of his househ1004 for loveh160, It would be utterlyh936 despisedh936."

8

1We have a littleh6996a sisterh269, And she  ahash369 noh369 breastsh7699a; Whath4100 shall we doh6213a for our sisterh269 On the dayh3117 whenh7945 she is spokenh1696 for?

9

"Ifh518 she is a wallh2346, We will buildh1129 on her a battlementh2918 of silverh3701; But ifh518 she is a doorh1817, We will barricadeh6696a her with  aplanksh3871 of cedarh730."

10

1I was a wallh2346, and  amy breastsh7699a were like towersh4026; Thenh227 I becameh1961 in his eyesh5869 as one who findsh4672 peaceh7965.

11

"Solomonh8010 hadh1961 a  avineyardh3754 at Baal-hamonh1174; He  bentrustedh5414 the vineyardh3754 to  ccaretakersh5201. Eachh376 oneh376 was to bringh935 a  dthousandh505 shekels of silverh3701 for its  efruith6529.

12

"My veryh7945 own vineyardh3754 is  1at my disposalh6440; The thousandh505 shekels are for you, Solomonh8010, And two hundredh3967 are for those who takeh5201 careh5201 of its fruith6529."

13

1O you who sith3427 in the gardensh1588, My  acompanionsh2270 are listeningh7181 for your voiceh6963--  bLet me hearh8085 it!"

14

1\, 2Hurryh1272, my belovedh1730, And be  alikeh1819 a gazelleh6643b orh176 a youngh6082  3stagh354 On the  bmountainsh2022 of spicesh1314."
