Song of Solomon 1:4-6
Jubilee Bible 2000
4 Draw me after thee, we will run. The king has brought me into his chambers; we will be glad and rejoice in thee; we will remember thy love more than the wine; the upright love thee.
5 I am dark, O ye daughters of Jerusalem, more desirable as the booths of Kedar, as the tents of Solomon.
6 Do not look upon me because I am dark because the sun has looked upon me; my mother’s sons were angry with me; they made me the keeper of the vineyards, but I have not kept my own vineyard.

Song of Songs 1:4-6
New International Version
4 Take me away with you—let us hurry!
Let the king bring me into his chambers.(A)
Friends
She
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.
