Lexicon :: Strong's H160 - 'ahăḇâ

“I am ^H6887 distressed ^H6887 for you, my brother ^H251 Jonathan ^H3083;

You have been ^H5276 very ^H3966 pleasant ^H5276 to me.

Your love ^H160 to me was ^H6381 more ^H4480 wonderful ^H6381

Than ^H4480 the love ^H160 of women ^H802.

Then Amnon ^H550 hated ^H8130 her with a very ^H3966 great ^H1419 hatred ^H8135; for the hatred ^H8135 with which ^H834 he hated ^H8130 her was greater ^H1419 than ^H4480 the love ^H160 with which ^H834 he had loved ^H157 her. And Amnon ^H550 said ^H559 to her, “Get ^H6965 up ^H6965, go ^H1980 away!”

Then Huram ^H2361 king ^H4428 of Tyre ^H6865 said ^H559 in a letter ^H3791 [fn]sent ^H7971 to Solomon ^H8010: “Because Yahweh ^H3068 loves ^H157 His people ^H5971, He has given ^H5414 you to be king ^H4428 over ^H5921 them.”

In ^H8478 return ^H8478 for ^H8478 my love ^H160 they accuse ^H7853 me;

But I am in prayer ^H8605.

As a loving ^H158 hind ^H355 and a graceful ^H2580 doe ^H3280,

Let her breasts ^H1717 satisfy ^H7301 you at all ^H3605 times ^H6256;

Be [fn]intoxicated ^H7686 always ^H8548 with her love ^H160.

Hatred ^H8135 stirs ^H5782 up ^H5782 strife ^H4090,

But love ^H160 covers ^H3680 all ^H3605 transgressions ^H6588.

Better ^H2896 is a [fn]dish ^H737 of [fn]vegetables ^H3419 where ^H8033 there is love ^H160

Than ^H4480 a fattened ^H75 ox ^H7794 and hatred ^H8135 in it.

He who covers ^H3680 a transgression ^H6588 seeks ^H1245 love ^H160,

But he who repeats ^H8138 a matter ^H1697 separates ^H6504 close ^H441 companions ^H441.

Better ^H2896 is reproof ^H8433 that is revealed ^H1540

Than ^H4480 love ^H160 that is hidden ^H5641.

For I have given ^H5414 all ^H3605 this ^H2088 to my heart ^H3820 and explain ^H952 [fn]it that righteous ^H6662 men ^H6662, wise ^H2450 men ^H2450, and their service ^H5652 are in the hand ^H3027 of God ^H430. Man ^H120 does not know ^H3045 whether ^H1571 it will be love ^H160 or ^H1571 hatred ^H8135; anything ^H3605 may be before ^H6440 him.

“He has brought ^H935 me to his [fn]house ^H1004 of banqueting ^H3196,

And his banner ^H1714 over ^H5921 me is love ^H160.

“[fn]I call ^H7650 you to solemnly swear ^H7650, O daughters ^H1323 of Jerusalem ^H3389,

By the gazelles ^H6643 or ^H176 by the hinds ^H355 of the field ^H7704,

That you do not arouse ^H5782 or awaken ^H5782 my love ^H160

Until ^H5704 [fn]she pleases ^H2654.”

“[fn]I call ^H7650 you to solemnly swear ^H7650, O daughters ^H1323 of Jerusalem ^H3389,

By the gazelles ^H6643 or ^H176 by the hinds ^H355 of the field ^H7704,

That you do not arouse ^H5782 or awaken ^H5782 my love ^H160

Until ^H5704 [fn]she pleases ^H2654.”

“He made ^H6213 its posts ^H5982 of silver ^H3701,

Its [fn]back ^H7507 of gold ^H2091

And its seat ^H4817 of purple ^H713 fabric ^H713,

With its interior ^H8432 inlaid ^H7528 with love ^H160

By the daughters ^H1323 of Jerusalem ^H3389.

“I call ^H7650 you to solemnly swear ^H7650, O daughters ^H1323 of Jerusalem ^H3389,

If ^H518 you find ^H4672 my beloved ^H1730,

What ^H4100 will you tell ^H5046 him?

Tell him that I am sick ^H2470 with love ^H160.”

“How ^H4100 beautiful ^H3302 and how ^H4100 pleasant ^H5276 you are ^H5276,

[fn]My love ^H160, with all your pleasures ^H8588!

“[fn]I call you to solemnly swear ^H7650, O daughters ^H1323 of Jerusalem ^H3389,

[fn]Why should you arouse ^H5782 or awaken ^H5782 my love ^H160

Until ^H5704 [fn]she pleases ^H2654?”

“Put ^H7760 me like a [fn]seal ^H2368 over ^H5921 your heart ^H3820,

Like a seal ^H2368 on your arm ^H2220.

For love ^H160 is as strong ^H5794 as death ^H4194,

[fn]Jealousy ^H7068 is as severe ^H7186 as Sheol ^H7585;

Its flashes ^H7565 are flashes ^H7565 of fire ^H784,

[fn]The very flame ^H7957 of [fn]Yah ^H3050.

In all ^H3605 their distress ^H6869 [fn]He was distressed ^H6862,

And the angel ^H4397 of His presence ^H6440 saved ^H3467 them;

In His love ^H160 and in His mercy ^H2551 He redeemed ^H1350 them,

And He lifted ^H5190 them and carried ^H5375 them all ^H3605 the ancient ^H5769 days ^H3117.

“I remember ^H2142 concerning you the lovingkindness ^H2617 of your youth ^H5271,

The love ^H160 of your betrothals ^H3623,

Your walking ^H1980 after ^H310 Me in the wilderness ^H4057,

Through a land ^H776 not sown ^H2232.

“How ^H4100 well ^H3190 you prepare ^H3190 your way ^H1870

To seek ^H1245 love ^H160!

Therefore ^H3651 even ^H1571 [fn]the wicked ^H7451 women ^H7451

You have taught ^H3925 your ways ^H1870.

Yahweh ^H3068 appeared ^H7200 to [fn]him from afar ^H7350, saying,

“I have loved ^H157 you with an everlasting ^H5769 love ^H160;

Therefore ^H5921 H3651 I have drawn ^H4900 you with lovingkindness ^H2617.

Then Yahweh ^H3068 said ^H559 to me, “Go ^H1980 again ^H5750, love ^H157 a [fn]woman ^H802 who is loved ^H157 by her companion ^H7453 and is an adulteress ^H5003, even as Yahweh ^H3068 loves ^H157 the sons ^H1121 of Israel ^H3478, though they turn ^H6437 to other ^H312 gods ^H430 and love ^H157 raisin ^H809 H6025 cakes ^H809.”

All ^H3605 their evil ^H7451 is at Gilgal ^H1537;

Indeed ^H3588, I came to hate ^H8130 them there ^H8033!

Because ^H5921 of the evil ^H7455 of their deeds ^H4611

I will drive ^H1644 them out ^H1644 of My house ^H1004!

I will love ^H157 them no ^H3808 more ^H3254;

All ^H3605 their princes ^H8269 are rebels ^H5637.

I led ^H4900 them with cords ^H2256 of a man ^H120, with bonds ^H5688 of love ^H160,

And I became ^H1961 to them as one who lifts ^H7311 the yoke ^H5923 from their jaws ^H3895;

And I bent ^H5186 down ^H5186 and fed ^H398 them.

He has told ^H5046 you, O man ^H120, what ^H4100 is good ^H2896;

And what ^H4100 does Yahweh ^H3068 require ^H1875 of you

But to do ^H6213 justice ^H4941, to love ^H157 lovingkindness ^H2617,

And to walk ^H1980 [fn]humbly ^H6800 with your God ^H430?

“Yahweh ^H3068 your God ^H430 is in your midst ^H7130,

A mighty ^H1368 one who will save ^H3467.

He will be joyful ^H7797 over ^H5921 you with gladness ^H8057;

He will [fn]be ^H2790 quiet ^H2790 in His love ^H160;

He will rejoice ^H1523 over ^H5921 you with joyful ^H7440 singing ^H7440.
