Song of Songs, Chapter 1

This book of the Tanakh & Old Testament is 1 that gets overlooked in most congregations. But this book of the Bible is so beautiful! This book of the Bible talks about how spouses/beloveds love each other, how they see each other, & how they care about each other. We all need that from our partners/spouses/beloveds. So if you’re looking for some biblical pick-up lines for your spouse/partners, go to this book of the Bible. You won’t miss! Enjoy the read!

Beloved

Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth – for your love is more delightful than wine. Pleasing is the fragrance of your perfumes; your name is like perfume poured out. No wonder the maidens love you! Take me away with you! Let us hurry!

Take me away with you. Let us hurry! Let the king bring me into his chambers.

Friends

We rejoice & delight in you. We’ll praise your love more than wine.

Beloved

How right they are to adore you! Dark am I, yet lovely, (yes, they’re talking about skin color) O daughters of Jerusalem, dark like the tents of Kedar, like the tent curtains of Solomon/Salma. Don’t stare at me because I’m dark. Because I’m darkened by the sun. My mother’s sons were angry with me & made me take care of the vineyards. My own vineyard I’ve neglected.

Tell me, you whom I love, where you graze your flock & where you rest your sheep at midday. Why should I be like a veiled woman beside the flocks of your friends?

Friends

If you don’t know, most beautiful of women, follow the tracks of the sheep & graze your young goats by the tents of the shepherds.

Lover

I liken you, my darling, to a mare harnessed to 1 of the chariots of the Pharaoh. Your cheeks are beautiful with earrings, your neck with strings of jewels. We’ll make you earrings of gold, studded with silver.

Beloved

While the king was at his table, my perfume spread its fragrance. My lover is to me a sachet of myrrh resting between my breasts. My lover is to me a cluster of henna blossoms from the vineyards of En Gedi.

Lover

How beautiful you are, my darling! Oh, how beautiful! Your eyes are doves.

Beloved

How handsome you are, my lover! Oh, how charming! And our bed is verdant.

Lover

The beams of our house are cedars; our rafters are firs.
