Song of Songs 2:9-17

9My belovedH1730 isH1819 likeH1819 a 1gazelleH6643 orH176 a 2youngH6082 3stagH354. BeholdH2009, he is standingH5975 behindH310 our wallH3796, He is lookingH7688 throughH4480 the windowsH2474, He is peeringH6692 4throughH4480 the latticeH2762.

10“My belovedH1730 respondedH6030 and saidH559 to me, ‘5AriseH6965, my darlingH7474, my beautifulH3303 oneH3303, And comeH1980 along.11For beholdH2009, the winterH5638 isH5674 pastH5674, The rainH1653 is overH2498 and goneH1980.12The blossomsH5339 have already appearedH7200 in the landH776; The timeH6256 has arrivedH5060 for 6pruningH2159 the vines, And the voiceH6963 of the 7turtledoveH8449 has been heardH8085 in our landH776.13The 8figH8384 treeH8384 has ripenedH2590 its fruitH6291, And the 9vinesH1612 in blossomH5563 have givenH5414 forth their fragranceH7381. AriseH6965, my darlingH7474, my beautifulH3303 oneH3303, And comeH1980 along!’”

14“10My doveH3123, 11in the cleftsH2288 of the 12rockH5553, In the hidingH5643 placeH5643 of the mountainH4095 pathwayH4095, Let me seeH7200 13howH4758 you lookH4758, 14Let me hearH8085 your voiceH6963; For your voiceH6963 is pleasantH6156, And 15you lookH4758 16delightfulH5000.”

15“17CatchH270 the 18foxesH7776 for us, The 19littleH6996 20foxesH7776 that are ruiningH2254 the vineyardsH3754, While our 21vineyardsH3754 are in blossomH5563.”

16“22My belovedH1730 is mine, and I am his; He 23pasturesH7462 his flock among the liliesH7799.1724UntilH5704 the coolH6315 of the dayH3117, when the shadowsH6738 fleeH5127, TurnH5437, my belovedH1730, and beH1819 likeH1819 a 25gazelleH6643 OrH176 a youngH6082 stagH354 26on the mountainsH2022 of 27BetherH1336.”
