Song of Solomon 1:4-6
New Living Translation
4 Take me with you; come, let’s run!
The king has brought me into his bedroom.
Young Women of Jerusalem
How happy we are for you, O king.
We praise your love even more than wine.
Young Woman
How right they are to adore you.
5 I am dark but beautiful,
O women of Jerusalem—
dark as the tents of Kedar,
dark as the curtains of Solomon’s tents.
6 Don’t stare at me because I am dark—
the sun has darkened my skin.
My brothers were angry with me;
they forced me to care for their vineyards,
so I couldn’t care for myself—my own vineyard.

How right they are to adore you!

daughters of Jerusalem,(E)
dark like the tents of Kedar,(F)
like the tent curtains of Solomon.[b]

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.
