Song Of Songs 8:7-14 Contemporary English Version Anglicised (CEVUK00)

7. Love cannot be drownedby oceans or floods;it cannot be bought,no matter what is offered.

8. We have a little sisterwhose breastsare not yet formed.If someone asks to marry her,what should we do?

9. She isn't a wallthat we can defendbehind a silver shield.Neither is she a roomthat we can protectbehind a wooden door.

10. I am a wall around a city,my breasts are towers,and just looking at mebrings him great pleasure.

11. Solomon has a vineyardat Baal-Hamon,which he rents to othersfor a thousand piecesof silver each.

12. My vineyard is mine alone!Solomon can keep his silverand the others can keeptheir share of the profits.

13. You are in the gardenwith friends all around.Let me hear your voice!

14. Hurry to me, my darling!Run faster than a deerto mountains of spices.
