Song of Songs 4:10-12
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
10 How sweet is your love, my sister, my bride!
How much better is your love than wine
and the fragrance of your oils than any spice!(A)
11 Your lips distill nectar, my bride;
honey and milk are under your tongue;
the scent of your garments is like the scent of Lebanon.(B)
12 A garden locked is my sister, my bride,
a garden[a] locked, a fountain sealed.(C)
