6. Set me as a seal upon your heart, As a seal upon your arm; For love is as strong as death, Jealousy as cruel as the grave; Its flames are flames of fire, a flame of Yah!
7. Many waters are unable to extinguish love, And floods do not wash it away. If one would give all the wealth of his house for love, It would be utterly scorned.
8. We have a little sister, and she has no breasts. What do we do for our sister in the day when she is spoken for?
9. If she is a wall, we build upon her a battlement of silver. And if she is a door, we would enclose her with boards of cedar.
10. I am a wall, and my breasts like towers; So I became in his eyes as one who found peace.
11. Shelomoh had a vineyard in Ba‛al Hamon; He let out the vineyard to keepers; Each one was to bring for its fruit a thousand pieces of silver.
12. My own vineyard is before me. O Shelomoh, a thousand belongs to you, And two hundred to those who keep its fruit.
13. You who sit in the gardens, The companions listen for your voice; Let me hear it!
14. Hurry, my beloved, And be like a gazelle or a young stag On the mountains of spices.
