Song of Songs 2

Revised Version 1895

1I AM a roseH2261 of SharonH8289, a lilyH7799 of the valleysH6010. 2As a lilyH7799 among thornsH2336, soH3651 is my love among the daughtersH1323. 3As the appleH8598 treeH6086 among the treesH6086 of the woodH6086, soH3651 is my belovedH1730 among the sonsH1121. I satH3427 downH3427 underH3427 his shadowH6738 with greatH2530 delightH2530, and his fruitH6529 was sweetH4966 to my tasteH2441. 4He broughtH935 meH413 to the banqueting houseH1004, and his bannerH1714 over meH413 was loveH160. 5Stay ye meH589 with raisinsH809, comfort meH589 with applesH8598: for I am sickH2470 of loveH160. 6His leftH8040 handH3225 is underH8478 my headH7218, and his rightH3225 handH3225 doth embraceH2263 meH8478. 7I adjureH7650 youH518, O daughtersH1323 of JerusalemH3389, by the roes, and by the hindsH355 of the fieldH7704, that ye stirH5782 notH518 upH5704, norH518 awakenH5782 loveH160, untilH5704 it please. 8The voiceH6963 of my belovedH1730! beholdH2009, he cometh, leapingH7092 uponH5921 the mountainsH2022, skipping uponH5921 the hillsH1389. 9My belovedH1730 is like a roe or a youngH6082 hart: beholdH2009, he standeth behindH310 our wallH3796, he looketh in at the windowsH2474, he sheweth himself throughH4480 the latticeH2762. 10My belovedH1730 spake, and saidH559 unto meH6030, RiseH6965 upH6965, my loveH1730, my fairH3303 one, and comeH6965 away. 11For, loH2009, the winterH5638 is pastH2498, the rainH1653 is over and goneH1980; 12The flowersH5339 appearH7200 on the earthH776; the time of the singing of birdsH6963 is comeH5060, and the voiceH6963 of the turtle is heardH8085 in our landH776; 13The figH8384 treeH8384 ripeneth herH5414 green figsH8384, and the vinesH1612 are in blossomH5563, they giveH5414 forthH5414 their fragrance. AriseH6965, my love, my fairH3303 one, and comeH6965 away. 14O my doveH3123, that art in the cleftsH2288 of the rockH5553, in the covert of the steepH4095 place, let meH6963 seeH7200 thy countenance, let meH6963 hearH8085 thy voiceH6963: for sweetH6156 is thy voiceH6963, and thy countenance is comelyH5000. 15TakeH270 us the foxesH7776, the littleH6996 foxesH7776, that spoil the vineyardsH3754; for our vineyardsH3754 are in blossomH5563. 16My belovedH1730 is mine, and I am his: he feedeth his flock among the liliesH7799. 17UntilH5704 the dayH3117 be coolH6315, and the shadows fleeH5127 awayH5437, turnH5437, my belovedH1730, and be thou like a roe or a youngH6082 hart uponH5921 the mountainsH2022 of BetherH1336.
