1 Лепа ти си, драга моја, лепа ти си, очи су ти као у голубице између витица твојих; коса ти је као стадо коза које се виде на гори Галаду; 2 Зуби су ти као стадо оваца једнаких, кад излазе из купала, које се све близне, а ниједне нема јалове. 3 Усне су ти као конац скерлета, а говор ти је љубак; као кришка шипка јагодице су твоје између витица твојих; 4 Врат ти је као кула Давидова сазидана за оружје, где висе хиљадама штитови и свакојако оружје јуначко; 5 Две су ти дојке као два ланета близанца, који пасу међу љиљанима. 6 Док дан захлади и сенке отиду, ићи ћу ка гори смирновој и ка хуму тамјановом. 7 Сва си лепа драга моја, и нема недостатака на теби. 8 Ходи са мном с Ливана, невесто, ходи са мном с Ливана, да гледаш с врха аманског, с врха сенирског и ермонског, из пећина лавовских, с гора рисовских. 9 Отела си ми срце, сестро моја невесто, отела си ми срце једним оком својим и једним ланчићем с грла свог. 10 Лепа ли је љубав твоја, сестро моја невесто, боља је од вина љубав твоја, и мирис уља твојих од свих мирисних ствари. 11 С усана твојих капље саће, невесто, под језиком ти је мед и млеко, и мирис је хаљина твојих као мирис ливански. 12 Ти си као врт затворен, сестро моја невесто, извор затворен, студенац запечаћен. 13 Биље је твоје воћњак од шипака с воћем красним, од кипра и нарда. 14 Од нарда и шафрана, од иђирота и цимета са свакојаким дрвљем за кад, од смирне и алоја и са сваким прекрасним мирисима. 15 Изворе вртовима, студенче воде живе и која тече с Ливана! 16 Устани севере, и ходи јуже, и дуни по врту мом да капљу мириси његови; нека дође драги мој у врт свој, и једе красно воће своје.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
… is said of the Church, when it is being praised under the figure of a beautiful woman, "Thy teeth are like a flock of sheep that are shorn which came up from the washing, whereof every one bears twins, and none is barren among them?"

These are they who prescribe rightly, and as they prescribe, live; who do what is written, "Let your works shine before men, that …

But who is the fountain that is sealed, or who is interpreted as being a well-spring of living water?
