![](images/arrow_open.gif)
Strongs On/Off
Context
7:1 The Lover to His Beloved: How beautiful are your sandaled feet , O nobleman’s daughter ! The curves of your thighs are like jewels , the work of the hands of a master craftsman .
7:2 Your navel is a round mixing bowl – may it never lack mixed wine ! Your belly is a mound of wheat , encircled by lilies .
7:3 Your two breasts are like two fawns , twins of a gazelle .
7:4 Your neck is like a tower made of ivory . Your eyes are the pools in Heshbon by the gate of Bath-Rabbim . Your nose is like the tower of Lebanon overlooking Damascus .
7:5 Your head crowns you like Mount Carmel . The locks of your hair are like royal tapestries – the king is held captive in its tresses !
7:6 How beautiful you are! How lovely , O love , with your delights !
