Song of Solomon 5:8-10

New Century Version

⁸ Promise me, women of Jerusalem,
    if you find my lover,
    tell him I am weak with love.

⁹ How is your lover better than other lovers,
    most beautiful of women?
How is your lover better than other lovers?
    Why do you want us to promise this?

¹⁰ My lover is healthy and tan,
    the best of ten thousand men.
