“Set me as a seal on your heart,as a seal on your arm;for love is strong as death.Jealousy is as cruel as Sheol.Its flashes are flashes of fire,a very flame of Yah.”
Song of Solomon 8:6 (WEB)
Context Reading
4I adjure you, daughters of Jerusalem,that you not stir up, nor awaken love,until it so desires. 5Who is this who comes up from the wilderness,leaning on her beloved?BelovedUnder the apple tree I awakened you.There your mother conceived you.There she was in labor and bore you. 6Set me as a seal on your heart,as a seal on your arm;for love is strong as death.Jealousy is as cruel as Sheol.Its flashes are flashes of fire,a very flame of Yah. 7Many waters can’t quench love,neither can floods drown it.If a man would give all the wealth of his house for love,he would be utterly scorned. 8We have a little sister.She has no breasts.What shall we do for our sisterin the day when she is to be spoken for?
