Song of Solomon 1:7-9
American Standard Version
7 Tell me, O thou whom my soul loveth,
Where thou feedest thy flock,
Where thou makest it to rest at noon:
For why should I be as one that is veiled
Beside the flocks of thy companions?
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.

New International Version
7 Tell me, you whom I love,
where you graze your flock
and where you rest your sheep(A) at midday.
Why should I be like a veiled(B) woman
beside the flocks of your friends?
Friends
8 If you do not know, most beautiful of women,(C)
follow the tracks of the sheep
and graze your young goats
by the tents of the shepherds.
He
9 I liken you, my darling, to a mare
among Pharaoh’s chariot horses.(D)
