Song of Solomon 2:1-7

New Living Translation NLT

1 I am the spring crocus blooming on the Sharon Plain, the lily of the valley.

2 Like a lily among thistles is my darling among young women.

3 Like the finest apple tree in the orchard is my lover among other young men. I sit in his delightful shade and taste his delicious fruit.

4 He escorts me to the banquet hall; it’s obvious how much he loves me.

5 Strengthen me with raisin cakes, refresh me with apples, for I am weak with love.

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

7 Promise me, O women of Jerusalem, by the gazelles and wild deer, not to awaken love until the time is right.

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.
