Good evening
I am starting a hopefully a daily bible verse. I am starting off at whatever the I open up at the bible. Sometimes it works out great for me and even I need to hear that message.
Today’s verse is from The Song of Solomon, verse 8 5:14
Homecoming
5. Who is that coming up from the wilderness, leaning upon her beloved? Under the apple tree I awakened you. There your mother was in labor with you, there she who bore you was in labor.
6. Set me as a seal upon your heart, as a seal upon your arm; for love is strong as death, passion fierce as the grave. Its flashes are flashes of fire, a raging flame.
7. Many waters cannot quench love, neither can floods drown it. If one offered for love all the wealth of one’s house, it would be utterly scorned.
8. We have a little sister, and she has no breasts. What shall we do for our sister, on the day when she is spoken for?
9. If she is a wall, we will build upon her a battlement of silver; but if she is a door, we will enclose her with boards of cedar.
10. I was a wall, and my breasts were like towers; then I was in his eyes as one who brings peace.
11. Solomon had a vineyard at Baal-hamon; he entrusted the vineyard to keepers; each one was to bring for its fruit a thousand pieces of silver.
12. My vineyard, my very own, is for myself; you, O Solomon, may have the thousand, and the keepers of the fruit two hundred.
13. O you who dwell in the gardens, my companions are listening for your voice; let me hear it.
14. Make haste, my beloved, and be like a gazelle or a young stag upon the mountains of spice!
Have a blessed evening.
