English

Great waters cannot quench love, nor torrents sweep it by. If a man offered all his inheritance for love - they would laugh him to shame. [The Brothers] We have a little sister, her breasts are not yet grown; what shall we do for our sister when a man comes for her? If she were a wall we would build a silver watchtower; if a door, then we would bar her up with cedar. [She] But I am a wall. My breasts are like towers. It was when I was so that I found peace in his eyes. Once, Solomon had a vineyard at Ba’al Hamon. He gave the vineyard over to the keepers; each keeper brought him in a silver thousand from the fruits. My vineyard stands before me, my own: Solomon, keep your thousand; pay two hundred to each keeper of the vines. [He] “You who still sit in the gardens, friends listen for your voice. Have me hear.” [She] Away with you, my beloved, like a gazelle, or a young deer, over perfumed hills.

Song of Songs 1:2; 4:16; 2:8; 5:1

Hebrew

יִשָּׁקֵ֙נִי֙ מִנְּשִׁיק֣וֹת פִּ֔יהוּ כִּֽי־טוֹבִ֥ים דֹּדֶ֖יךָ מִיָּֽיִן׃ ע֤וּרִי צָפוֹן֙ וּב֣וֹאִי תֵימָ֔ן הָפִ֥יחִי גַנִּ֖י יִזְּל֣וּ בְשָׂמָ֑יו יָבֹ֤א דוֹדִי֙ לְגַנּ֔וֹ וְיֹאכַ֖ל פְּרִ֥י מְגָדָֽיו׃ ק֣וֹל דּוֹדִ֔י הִנֵּה־זֶ֖ה בָּ֑א מְדַלֵּג֙ עַל־הֶ֣הָרִ֔ים מְקַפֵּ֖ץ עַל־הַגְּבָעֽוֹת׃ בָּ֣אתִי לְגַנִּי֮ אֲחֹתִ֣י כַלָּה֒ אָרִ֤יתִי מוֹרִי֙ עִם־בְּשָׂמִ֔י אָכַ֤לְתִּי יַעְרִי֙ עִם־דִּבְשִׁ֔י שָׁתִ֥יתִי יֵינִ֖י עִם־חֲלָבִ֑י אִכְל֣וּ רֵעִ֔ים שְׁת֥וּ וְשִׁכְר֖וּ דּוֹדִֽים׃ {ס}

English

Would that he kiss me with that mouth. Better than any wine is your love. Wake now, north wind, south wind, come: breathe life into my garden, let its perfumes flow. Let my beloved come to his garden, and eat his sweetest fruits. The voice of my beloved - I hear him coming - springing over the hills, leaping the slopes. I have come into my garden, my sister, my bride; I have gathered my myrrh and my balsam, I have eaten my honeycomb with honey, I have drunk my wine with milk - Eat, loved ones, eat; drink, drink deep of love.

EREV SHABBAT

In some congregations the following psalm is said before Minha on Friday afternoon. On Erev Yom Tov and Hol HaMo‘ed it is omitted.

Psalm 107

Hebrew

הֹד֣וּ לַיהֹוָ֣ה כִּי־ט֑וֹב כִּ֖י לְעוֹלָ֣ם חַסְדּֽוֹ׃ יֹ֭אמְרוּ גְּאוּלֵ֣י יְהֹוָ֑ה אֲשֶׁ֥ר גְּ֝אָלָ֗ם מִיַּד־צָֽר׃ וּֽמֵאֲרָצ֗וֹת קִ֫בְּצָ֥ם מִמִּזְרָ֥ח וּמִֽמַּעֲרָ֑ב מִצָּפ֥וֹן וּמִיָּֽם׃ תָּע֣וּ בַ֭מִּדְבָּר בִּישִׁימ֣וֹן דָּ֑רֶךְ עִ֥יר מ֝וֹשָׁ֗ב לֹ֣א מָצָֽאוּ׃ רְעֵבִ֥ים גַּם־צְמֵאִ֑ים נַ֝פְשָׁ֗ם בָּהֶ֥ם תִּתְעַטָּֽף׃ וַיִּצְעֲק֣וּ אֶל־יְ֭הֹוָה בַּצַּ֣ר לָהֶ֑ם מִ֝מְּצ֥וּקוֹתֵיהֶ֗ם יַצִּילֵֽם׃ וַֽ֭יַּדְרִיכֵם בְּדֶ֣רֶךְ יְשָׁרָ֑ה לָ֝לֶ֗כֶת אֶל־עִ֥יר מוֹשָֽׁב׃

English

Thank the LORD for He is good; His loving-kindness is for ever. Let those the LORD redeemed say this - those He redeemed from the enemy’s hand, those He gathered from the lands, from east and west, from north and south. Some lost their way in desert wastelands, finding no way to a city where they could live.
