Song of Songs 1:7-9
EasyEnglish Bible
7 I love you, my dear one.[a]
Tell me where you take your sheep to eat grass.
Where will you take them to rest at midday?
I do not want to look for you everywhere
among the sheep of your friends.
They might not understand what I am doing.
The man and the woman praise each other
The young man:
8 You are the most beautiful woman of all.
If you do not know where to find me,
follow the marks from the feet of my sheep.
Take your young goats to eat grass
among the tents of the shepherds.
9 My dear friend, you are very beautiful.
You seem to me like a beautiful horse that pulls one of Pharaoh's chariots.
Footnotes
- 1:7 The woman now speaks to the man that she loves.

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?

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.

among Pharaoh’s chariot horses.(D)
