Song of Solomon 6 4-Song of Solomon 6 10
You are as beautiful as Tirzah, my darling, lovely as Jerusalem, awe-inspiring as an army with banners.Turn your eyes away from me, for they captivate me. Your hair is like a flock of goats streaming down from Gilead.Your teeth are like a flock of ewes coming up from washing, each one having a twin, and not one missing.Behind your veil, your brow is like a slice of pomegranate.There are 60 queens and 80 concubines and young women without number.But my dove, my virtuous one, is unique; she is the favorite of her mother, perfect to the one who gave her birth. Women see her and declare her fortunate; queens and concubines also, and they sing her praises:Who is this who shines like the dawn— as beautiful as the moon, bright as the sun, awe-inspiring as an army with banners?

Hebrews 11:4-40
By faith Abel offered to God a better sacrifice than Cain did. By faith he was approved as a righteous man, because God approved his gifts, and even though he is dead, he still speaks through his faith.By faith Enoch was taken away so he did not experience death, and he was not to be found because God took him away. For prior to his removal he was approved, since he had pleased God.Now without faith it is impossible to please God, for the one who draws near to Him must believe that He exists and rewards those who seek Him.By faith Noah, after he was warned about what was not yet seen and motivated by godly fear, built an ark to deliver his family. By faith he condemned the world and became an heir of the righteousness that comes by faith.By faith Abraham, when he was called, obeyed and went out to a place he was going to receive as an inheritance. He went out, not knowing where he was going.By faith he stayed as a foreigner in the land of promise, living in tents with Isaac and Jacob, coheirs of the same promise.For he was looking forward to the city that has foundations, whose architect and builder is God.By faith even Sarah herself, when she was unable to have children, received power to conceive offspring, even though she was past the age, since she considered that the One who had promised was faithful.Therefore from one man— in fact, from one as good as dead— came offspring as numerous as the stars of heaven and as innumerable as the grains of sand by the seashore.These all died in faith without having received the promises, but they saw them from a distance, greeted them, and confessed that they were foreigners and temporary residents on the earth.Now those who say such things make it clear that they are seeking a homeland.If they were thinking about where they came from, they would have had an opportunity to return.But they now desire a better place— a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for He has prepared a city for them.By faith Abraham, when he was tested, offered up Isaac. He received the promises and he was offering his unique son,the one it had been said about, Your seed will be traced through Isaac.He considered God to be able even to raise someone from the dead, and as an illustration, he received him back.By faith Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau concerning things to come.By faith Jacob, when he was dying, blessed each of the sons of Joseph, and he worshiped, leaning on the top of his staff.By faith Joseph, as he was nearing the end of his life, mentioned the exodus of the Israelites and gave instructions concerning his bones.By faith, after Moses was born, he was hidden by his parents for three months, because they saw that the child was beautiful, and they didn’t fear the king’s edict.By faith Moses, when he had grown up, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh’s daughterand chose to suffer with the people of God rather than to enjoy the short-lived pleasure of sin.For he considered the reproach because of the Messiah to be greater wealth than the treasures of Egypt, since his attention was on the reward.By faith he left Egypt behind, not being afraid of the king’s anger, for Moses persevered as one who sees Him who is invisible.By faith he instituted the Passover and the sprinkling of the blood, so that the destroyer of the firstborn might not touch the Israelites.By faith they crossed the Red Sea as though they were on dry land. When the Egyptians attempted to do this, they were drowned.By faith the walls of Jericho fell down after being encircled by the Israelites for seven days.By faith Rahab the prostitute received the spies in peace and didn’t perish with those who disobeyed.And what more can I say? Time is too short for me to tell about Gideon, Barak, Samson, Jephthah, David, Samuel, and the prophets,who by faith conquered kingdoms, administered justice, obtained promises, shut the mouths of lions,quenched the raging of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, gained strength after being weak, became mighty in battle, and put foreign armies to flight.Women received their dead— they were raised to life again. Some men were tortured, not accepting release, so that they might gain a better resurrection,and others experienced mockings and scourgings, as well as bonds and imprisonment.They were stoned, they were sawed in two, they died by the sword, they wandered about in sheepskins, in goatskins, destitute, afflicted, and mistreated.The world was not worthy of them. They wandered in deserts and on mountains, hiding in caves and holes in the ground.All these were approved through their faith, but they did not receive what was promised,since God had provided something better for us, so that they would not be made perfect without us.

Song of Solomon 7 1-Song of Solomon 7 13
How beautiful are your sandaled feet, princess! The curves of your thighs are like jewelry, the handiwork of a master.Your navel is a rounded bowl; it never lacks mixed wine. Your waist is a mound of wheat surrounded by lilies.Your breasts are like two fawns, twins of a gazelle.Your neck is like a tower of ivory, your eyes like pools in Heshbon by the gate of Bath-rabbim. Your nose is like the tower of Lebanon looking toward Damascus.Your head crowns you like Mount Carmel, the hair of your head like purple cloth— a king could be held captive in your tresses.How beautiful you are and how pleasant, my love, with such delights!Your stature is like a palm tree; your breasts are clusters of fruit.I said,“ I will climb the palm tree and take hold of its fruit.” May your breasts be like clusters of grapes, and the fragrance of your breath like apricots.Your mouth is like fine wine— flowing smoothly for my love, gliding past my lips and teeth!I belong to my love, and his desire is for me.Come, my love, let’s go to the field; let’s spend the night among the henna blossoms.Let’s go early to the vineyards; let’s see if the vine has budded, if the blossom has opened, if the pomegranates are in bloom. There I will give you my love.The mandrakes give off a fragrance, and at our doors is every delicacy— new as well as old. I have treasured them up for you, my love.
