Song of solomon Chapter[BR] 8

1 "O that you were like a brother to me, who nursed from my mother's breasts! If I found you outside, I would kiss you, and no one would hate me.

2 I would lead you and bring you into the house of my mother, who used to teach me. I would give you wine with spices to drink, made from my pomegranates.

3 Let his left hand be under my head, and his right hand hold me close."

4 "I tell you, O daughters of Jerusalem. You must not wake up my love, until it is pleasing to her."

5 "Who is this coming up from the desert, resting on her loved one?" "I woke you up under the fruit tree. There your mother suffered and gave birth to you.

6 Put me over your heart and on your arm, never to be taken off. For love is as strong as death. Jealousy is as hard as the grave. Its bright light is like the light of fire, the very fire of the Lord.

8 "We have a little sister, and she has no breasts. What should we do for our sister on the day when she is promised in marriage?

12 My own grape-field is for myself. The 1,000 pieces of silver are for you, Solomon. And 200 are for those who take care of its fruit."
