Song of Solomon 4 10-Song of Solomon 5 1
How delightful your caresses are, my sister, my bride. Your caresses are much better than wine, and the fragrance of your perfume than any balsam.Your lips drip sweetness like the honeycomb, my bride. Honey and milk are under your tongue. The fragrance of your garments is like the fragrance of Lebanon.My sister, my bride, you are a locked garden— a locked garden and a sealed spring.Your branches are a paradise of pomegranates with choicest fruits; henna with nard,nard and saffron, calamus and cinnamon, with all the trees of frankincense, myrrh and aloes, with all the best spices.You are a garden spring, a well of flowing water streaming from Lebanon.Awaken, north wind; come, south wind. Blow on my garden, and spread the fragrance of its spices. Let my love come to his garden and eat its choicest fruits.I have come to my garden— my sister, my bride. I gather my myrrh with my spices. I eat my honeycomb with my honey. I drink my wine with my milk. Eat, friends! Drink, be intoxicated with caresses!

1 Peter 1 10-1 Peter 1 12
Concerning this salvation, the prophets, who prophesied about the grace that would come to you, searched and carefully investigated.They inquired into what time or what circumstances the Spirit of Christ within them was indicating when he testified in advance to the sufferings of Christ and the glories that would follow.It was revealed to them that they were not serving themselves but you. These things have now been announced to you through those who preached the gospel to you by the Holy Spirit sent from heaven— angels long to catch a glimpse of these things.
