My lover is mine, and I am his; he feeds his flock among the lilies.

I belong to my lover, and he desires me.

You can smell the scent of mandrakes, and all the pleasant fruits are near our door. Darling, I have kept for you the old delights and the new.

"This God is our God forever and ever; he will lead us for all time to come."

O God, you are my God, and I long for you. My whole being desires you; like a dry, worn-out, and waterless land, my soul is thirsty for you.

The new covenant that I will make with the people of Israel will be this: I will put my law within them and write it on their hearts. I will be their God, and they will be my people.

No one, then, should boast about what human beings can do. Actually everything belongs to you:

and you belong to Christ, and Christ belongs to God.

so that it is no longer I who live, but it is Christ who lives in me. This life that I live now, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave his life for me.

And I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared and ready, like a bride dressed to meet her husband.

I heard a loud voice speaking from the throne: "Now God's home is with people! He will live with them, and they shall be his people. God himself will be with them, and he will be their God.

I am only a wild flower in Sharon, a lily in a mountain valley.

Tell me, my love, Where will you lead your flock to graze? Where will they rest from the noonday sun? Why should I need to look for you among the flocks of the other shepherds?

My lover is mine, and I am his; he feeds his flock among the lilies.
