As lovely as Jerusalem,

As majestic as [fn]an army with banners.

Which have come up from their washing,

All of which bear twins,

Behind your veil.

As beautiful as the full moon,

As pure as the sun,

As majestic as [fn]an army with banners?’

To see the blossoms of the valley,

To see whether the vine had flourished

Or the pomegranates had bloomed.

Among the chariots of [fn]my noble people.”

Come back, come back, that we may behold you!”

[fn]Why should you behold the Shulammite,

As at the dance of [fn]the two companies?
