Song of Solomon 2:1-7
1I am a rose ▼▼Probably a bulb, such as a crocus, asphodel, or narcissus
of Sharon,ba lily of the valleys.
He
2 As a lily among brambles,so is cmy love among the young women.
She
3 As an apple tree among the trees of the forest,so is my dbeloved among the young men.
With great delight I sat ein his shadow,
and his ffruit was sweet to my taste.
4He gbrought me to the banqueting house, ▼
▼Hebrew the house of wine
and his ibanner over me was love.
5Sustain me with jraisins;
refresh me with apples,
kfor I am sick with love.
6His lleft hand is under my head,
and his right hand membraces me!
7I nadjure you, ▼
▼That is, I put you on oath; so throughout the Song
O pdaughters of Jerusalem,by qthe gazelles or the does of the field,
that you not stir up or awaken love
until it pleases.
