Footnotes
רַעְיָתִי (ra'yati): from the root רָעָה, "to associate or companion with" — denoting intimate friendship more than mere romantic endearment; F.O.G renders "companion" to preserve this relational weight. אֲיֻמָּה (ayummah): from a root connoting awe-inducing dread, not gentle admiration — her beauty is formidable, even overwhelming; F.O.G keeps the martial edge ("formidable"), F.O.G Message draws out the reverential register ("awe-inspiring"). The pairing of Tirtzah (northern capital) with Yerushalayim (southern capital) spans the entire land.
