Could someone please help me? I'm trying to figure out which syllables are stressed. I read that the dot in a letter means it is stressed, but not every word has something like that. The word אַֽהֲבָ֔ה in particular throws me out of rhythm:
כִּֽי־עַזָּ֤ה כַמָּ֨וֶת֙ אַֽהֲבָ֔ה
(for love is as strong as death; Song of Songs 8:6)
כִּֽי־עַזָּ֤ה כַמָּ֨וֶת֙ אַֽהֲבָ֔ה
(for love is as strong as death; Song of Songs 8:6)
