Song of Solomon 2

Lexham English Bible LEB

1 I [am] a rose of Sharon, a lily of the valleys.

2 Like a lily among the thorns, so [is] my love among the maidens.

3 As an apple tree among the trees of the forest, so [is] my beloved among the young men. In his shade {I sat down with delight}, and his fruit [was] sweet to my palate.

4 He brought me to the house of the wine, and his intention [was] love toward me.

5 Sustain me with the raisins, refresh me with the apples, {for I [am] lovesick}.

6 His left [hand] [is] under my head, and his right [hand] embraces me.

7 I adjure you, {O maidens of Jerusalem}, by the gazelles or by the does of the field, do not arouse or awaken love until it pleases!

8 The voice of my beloved! Look! Here {he} comes leaping upon the mountains, bounding over the hills!

9 My beloved is like a gazelle or {a young stag}. Look! {He is} standing behind our wall, gazing {through} the window, looking {through} the lattice.

10 My beloved answered and said to me, "{Arise}, my beloved! {Come, my beauty}!

11 For look! The winter is over; {the rainy season} {has turned and gone away}.

12 The blossoms {appear} {in the land}; {the time of singing has arrived}; the voice of the turtledove is heard in our land.

13 The fig tree puts forth her figs, and the vines [are in] blossom; they give fragrance. {Arise}, my beloved! {Come, my beauty}!"

14 My dove, in the clefts of the rock, {in the secluded place} {in the mountain}, Let me see your face, let me hear your voice; for your voice [is] sweet and your face [is] lovely.

15 Catch for us the foxes, the little foxes destroying vineyards, for our vineyards [are in] blossom!

16 {My beloved belongs to me and I belong to him}; he pastures his flock among the lilies.

17 Until the day breathes and the shadows flee, turn, my beloved! {Be like} a gazelle or {young stag} on the cleft mountains.

New International Version NIV

1 I am a rose of Sharon, a lily of the valleys.

2 Like a lily among thorns is my darling among the young women.

3 Like an apple tree among the trees of the forest is my beloved among the young men. I delight to sit in his shade, and his fruit is sweet to my taste.

4 Let him lead me to the banquet hall, and let his banner over me be love.

5 Strengthen me with raisins, refresh me with apples, for I am faint with love.

6 His left arm is under my head, and his right arm embraces me.

7 Daughters of Jerusalem, I charge you by the gazelles and by the does of the field: Do not arouse or awaken love until it so desires.

8 Listen! My beloved! Look! Here he comes, leaping across the mountains, bounding over the hills.

9 My beloved is like a gazelle or a young stag. Look! There he stands behind our wall, gazing through the windows, peering through the lattice.

10 My beloved spoke and said to me, “Arise, my darling, my beautiful one, come with me.

11 See! The winter is past; the rains are over and gone.

12 Flowers appear on the earth; the season of singing has come, the cooing of doves is heard in our land.

13 The fig tree forms its early fruit; the blossoming vines spread their fragrance. Arise, come, my darling; my beautiful one, come with me.”

14 My dove in the clefts of the rock, in the hiding places on the mountainside, show me your face, let me hear your voice; for your voice is sweet, and your face is lovely.

15 Catch for us the foxes, the little foxes that ruin the vineyards, our vineyards that are in bloom.

16 My beloved is mine and I am his; he browses among the lilies.

17 Until the day breaks and the shadows flee, turn, my beloved, and be like a gazelle or like a young stag on the rugged hills.
