Song of Songs 8:6-7

Place me like a seal over your heart,

Like a seal on your arm;

For love is as strong as death,

Its jealousy unyielding as the grave.

It burns like blazing fire,

Like a mighty flame.

Many waters cannot quench love;

Rivers cannot wash it away. 

If one were to give

All the wealth of his house for love,

It would be utterly scorned.
