My beloved put in his hand by the opening of the door, and my heart was moved for him.

His head is like the finest gold, his locks straight and black as a raven.

His eyes are like the eyes of doves by brooks of water, washed with milk and fitly set.

His cheeks are like beds of spices, like sweet flowers; his lips like lilies, dropping myrrh and spikenard.

His hands are like golden girdles studded with precious stones; his belly is like a work of ivory overlaid with sapphires.

His legs are like pillars of marble set upon bases of gold; his chest is like Lebanon, excellent as the cedars.

His mouth is like sweet honeycombs; his garments are lovely. This is my beloved, and this is my friend, O daughters of Jerusalem.

My beloved has gone down into his garden, to the beds of spices, to feed in the gardens and to gather lilies.

I am my beloveds, and his desire is toward me.

His left arm is under my head, and his right hand embraces me.

Many waters cannot quench love, neither can the rivers carry it away; and yet, if a man would give all the substance of his house for love, people would mock him.

I am a wall, and my breasts are like towers; then I was in his eyes as one who has found favor.

And many people shall go and say, Come, let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem.

Enter into the rocks, and hide in the dust, for fear of the LORD, and for the glory of his majesty.

And the people shall go into the holes of the rocks, and into the caves of the earth, for fear of the LORD, and for the glory of his majesty, when he arises to conquer the earth.

In that day a man shall cast away to the moles and to the bats his idols of gold and his idols of silver, which they made each one for themselves to worship,

To go into the caves of the rocks, and into the clefts of the ragged rocks, for fear of the LORD, and for the glory of his majesty, when he arises to conquer the earth.

And the people shall oppress one another, every one his neighbor; and the young men shall provoke the elders, and the base men the honorable.

When a man shall take hold of his brother in the house of his father, and say to him, You have clothing, be our ruler, and govern this ruin;

For Jerusalem has stumbled, and Judah has fallen; because their tongue and their doings are against the LORD, provoking God in the majesty of his glory.
