Song of Songs 8:6-7

6 Set me as a seal upon your heart,
 as a seal upon your arm,
for love is strong as death,
 passion fierce as the grave.
Its flashes are flashes of fire,
 a raging flame.
7 Many waters cannot quench love,
 neither can floods drown it.
If one offered for love
 all the wealth of one’s house,
 it would be utterly scorned.
