Cantares 3:5

El amado

5 Yo les ruego, mujeres de Jerusalén,por las gacelas y cervatillas del bosque,que no desvelen ni molesten a mi amadahasta que ella quiera despertar.

Cantares 3:5 Meaning and Commentary

Song of Solomon 3:5

I charge you, O ye daughters of Jerusalem
Which are either the words of Christ, adjuring the young converts not to disturb the church; who had now Christ in her arms, taking repose with him, being wearied with running about in search of him: or they are the words of the church; who having experienced a long absence of Christ, and having been at much pains in search of him, and now had found him, was very unwilling to part with him; and fearing these young converts should by any unbecoming word or action provoke him to depart, she gives them a solemn charge; by the roes and by the hinds of the field, that ye stir not up, nor
awake my love, till he please; (See Gill on Song of Solomon 2:7).

Cantares 3:5 In-Context

3 Me encuentran los centinelasmientras rondan la ciudad.Les pregunto:«¿Han visto ustedes al amor de mi vida?»

4 No bien los he dejado,cuando encuentro al amor de mi vida.Lo abrazo y, sin soltarlo,lo llevo a la casa de mi madre,a la alcoba donde ella me concibió.

5 Yo les ruego, mujeres de Jerusalén,por las gacelas y cervatillas del bosque,que no desvelen ni molesten a mi amadahasta que ella quiera despertar.

6 ¿Qué es eso que sube por el desiertosemejante a una columna de humo,entre aromas de mirra e incienso,entre exóticos perfumes?

7 ¡Miren!¡Es el carruaje de Salomón!Viene escoltado por sesenta guerreros,escogidos entre los más valientes de Israel.
