Song of Solomon 1:4-6
Complete Jewish Bible
4 “Take me with you. We will run after you.”
The king has brought me into his rooms.
[Chorus]
We will be glad and rejoice for you.
We will praise your love more than wine.
How right it is for them to love you!
[She]
5 I am dark tan but beautiful,
you daughters of Yerushalayim,
like the tents of Kedar,
like the curtains of Shlomo.
6 Don’t stare at me because I’m dark;
it’s the sun that tanned me.
My mother’s sons were angry with me
and made me look after the vineyards.
But I haven’t cared for my own vineyard.

Friends

How right they are to adore you!
5 Dark am I, yet lovely,(D)
daughters of Jerusalem,(E)
dark like the tents of Kedar,(F)
like the tent curtains of Solomon.[b]
6 Do not stare at me because I am dark,
because I am darkened by the sun.
My mother’s sons were angry with me
and made me take care of the vineyards;(G)
my own vineyard I had to neglect.
