17 Until the day H3117 break, H6315 and the shadows H6752 flee away, H5127 turn, H5437 my beloved, H1730 and be thou like H1819 a roe H6643 or a young H6082 hart H354 upon the mountains H2022 of Bether. H1336
Until the day H3117 break, H6315 and the shadows H6752 flee away, H5127 I will get H3212 me to the mountain H2022 of myrrh, H4753 and to the hill H1389 of frankincense. H3828
The voice H6963 of my beloved! H1730 behold, he cometh H935 leaping H1801 upon the mountains, H2022 skipping H7092 upon the hills. H1389 My beloved H1730 is like H1819 a roe H6643 or a young H6082 hart: H354 behold, he standeth H5975 behind H310 our wall, H3796 he looketh forth H7688 at the windows, H2474 shewing H6692 himself through the lattice. H2762
Through G1223 the tender G4698 mercy G1656 of our G2257 God; G2316 whereby G1722 G3739 the dayspring G395 from G1537 on high G5311 hath visited G1980 us, G2248
The night G3571 is far spent, G4298 G1161 the day G2250 is at hand: G1448 let us G659 therefore G3767 cast off G659 the works G2041 of darkness, G4655 and G2532 let us put on G1746 the armour G3696 of light. G5457
Who G3748 serve G3000 unto the example G5262 and G2532 shadow G4639 of heavenly things, G2032 as G2531 Moses G3475 was admonished of God G5537 when he was about G3195 to make G2005 the tabernacle: G4633 for, G1063 See, G3708 saith he, G5346 that thou make G4160 all things G3956 according to G2596 the pattern G5179 shewed G1166 to thee G4671 in G1722 the mount. G3735
For G1063 the law G3551 having G2192 a shadow G4639 of good things G18 to come, G3195 and not G3756 the very G846 image G1504 of the things, G4229 can G1410 never G3763 with those G846 sacrifices G2378 which G3739 they offered G4374 year by year G2596 G1763 continually G1519 G1336 make G5048 the comers thereunto G4334 perfect. G5048
We have G2192 also G2532 a more sure G949 word G3056 of prophecy; G4397 whereunto G3739 ye do G4160 well G2573 that ye take heed, G4337 as G5613 unto a light G3088 that shineth G5316 in G1722 a dark G850 place, G5117 until G2193 G3757 the day G2250 dawn, G1306 and G2532 the day star G5459 arise G393 in G1722 your G5216 hearts: G2588
