Guidance and Reassurance

Song of Solomon 1:8
Showing verse 8 with surrounding context.
5
I am dark, yet lovely, O daughters of Jerusalem, like the tents of Kedar, like the curtains of Solomon.
6
Do not stare because I am dark, for the sun has gazed upon me. My mother’s sons were angry with me; they made me a keeper of the vineyards, but my own vineyard I have neglected.
7
Tell me, O one I love, where do you pasture your sheep? Where do you rest them at midday? Why should I be like a veiled woman beside the flocks of your companions?
8
If you do not know, O fairest of women, follow the tracks of the flock, and graze your young goats near the tents of the shepherds.
9
I compare you, my darling, to a mare among Pharaoh’s chariots.
10
Your cheeks are beautiful with ornaments, your neck with strings of jewels.
11
We will make you ornaments of gold, studded with beads of silver.
