¶ Behold, thou [art] fair, my love; behold, thou [art] fair; thou [hast] doves' eyes within thy locks: thy hair [is] as a flock of goats, that appear from mount Gilead.

Behold, thou art fair {H3303}, my love {H7474}; behold, thou art fair {H3303}; thou hast doves {H3123}' eyes {H5869} within {H1157} thy locks {H6777}: thy hair {H8181} is as a flock {H5739} of goats {H5795}, that appear {H1570} from mount {H2022} Gilead {H1568}.

[He] How beautiful you are, my love! How beautiful you are! Your eyes are doves behind your veil. Your hair is like a flock of goats streaming down Mount Gil'ad.

How beautiful you are, my darling— how very beautiful! Your eyes are like doves behind your veil. Your hair is like a flock of goats streaming down Mount Gilead.

Behold, thou art fair, my love; behold, thou art fair; Thine eyes are as doves behind thy veil. Thy hair is as a flock of goats, That lie along the side of mount Gilead.
