Song of Solomon 1 1-Song of Solomon 1 8
The Song of songs, which is Solomon’s.Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth; for your love is better than wine.Your oils have a pleasing fragrance. Your name is oil poured out, therefore the virgins love you.Take me away with you. Let’s hurry. The king has brought me into his rooms. We will be glad and rejoice in you. We will praise your love more than wine! They are right to love you.I am dark, but lovely, you daughters of Jerusalem, like Kedar’s tents, like Solomon’s curtains.Don’t stare at me because I am dark, because the sun has scorched me. My mother’s sons were angry with me. They made me keeper of the vineyards. I haven’t kept my own vineyard.Tell me, you whom my soul loves, where you graze your flock, where you rest them at noon; for why should I be as one who is veiled beside the flocks of your companions?If you don’t know, most beautiful among women, follow the tracks of the sheep. Graze your young goats beside the shepherds’ tents.

Psalms 45:9-17
Kings’ daughters are among your honorable women. At your right hand the queen stands in gold of Ophir.Listen, daughter, consider, and turn your ear. Forget your own people, and also your father’s house.So the king will desire your beauty, honor him, for he is your lord.The daughter of Tyre comes with a gift. The rich among the people entreat your favor.The princess inside is all glorious. Her clothing is interwoven with gold.She shall be led to the king in embroidered work. The virgins, her companions who follow her, shall be brought to you.With gladness and rejoicing they shall be led. They shall enter into the king’s palace.Your sons will take the place of your fathers. You shall make them princes in all the earth.I will make your name to be remembered in all generations. Therefore the peoples shall give you thanks forever and ever.
