Song of Solomon 4:12

Read in context

Song of Solomon 4:10–14 · Berean Standard Bible

10 How delightful is your love, my sister, my bride! Your love is much better than wine, and the fragrance of your perfume than all spices.

11 Your lips, my bride, drip sweetness like the honeycomb; honey and milk are under your tongue, and the fragrance of your garments is like the aroma of Lebanon.

12 My sister, my bride, you are a garden locked up, a spring enclosed, a fountain sealed.

13 Your branches are an orchard of pomegranates with the choicest of fruits, with henna and nard,

14 with nard and saffron, with calamus and cinnamon, with every kind of frankincense tree, with myrrh and aloes, with all the finest spices.
