SongofSolomon 2

1 I AM a rose of Sharon, a lily of the valleys.RV1885 — SongofSolomon 2:1

2 As a lily among thorns, so is my love among the daughters.RV1885 — SongofSolomon 2:2

3 As the apple tree among the trees of the wood, so is my beloved among the sons. I sat down under his shadow with great delight, and his fruit was sweet to my taste.RV1885 — SongofSolomon 2:3

4 He brought me to the banqueting house, and his banner over me was love.RV1885 — SongofSolomon 2:4

5 Stay ye me with raisins, comfort me with apples: for I am sick of love.RV1885 — SongofSolomon 2:5

6 His left hand is under my head, and his right hand doth embrace me.RV1885 — SongofSolomon 2:6

7 I adjure you, O daughters of Jerusalem, by the roes, and by the hinds of the field, that ye stir not up, nor awaken love, until it please.RV1885 — SongofSolomon 2:7

8 The voice of my beloved! behold, he cometh, leaping upon the mountains, skipping upon the hills.RV1885 — SongofSolomon 2:8

9 My beloved is like a roe or a young hart: behold, he standeth behind our wall, he looketh in at the windows, he sheweth himself through the lattice.RV1885 — SongofSolomon 2:9

10 My beloved spake, and said unto me, Rise up, my love, my fair one, and come away.RV1885 — SongofSolomon 2:10

11 For, lo, the winter is past, the rain is over and gone;RV1885 — SongofSolomon 2:11

12 The flowers appear on the earth; the time of the singing of birds is come, and the voice of the turtle is heard in our land;RV1885 — SongofSolomon 2:12

13 The fig tree ripeneth her green figs, and the vines are in blossom, they give forth their fragrance. Arise, my love, my fair one, and come away.RV1885 — SongofSolomon 2:13

14 O my dove, that art in the clefts of the rock, in the covert of the steep place, let me see thy countenance, let me hear thy voice: for sweet is thy voice, and thy countenance is comely.RV1885 — SongofSolomon 2:14

15 Take us the foxes, the little foxes, that spoil the vineyards; for our vineyards are in blossom.RV1885 — SongofSolomon 2:15

16 My beloved is mine, and I am his: he feedeth his flock among the lilies.RV1885 — SongofSolomon 2:16

17 Until the day be cool, and the shadows flee away, turn, my beloved, and be thou like a roe or a young hart upon the mountains of Bether.RV1885 — SongofSolomon 2:17
