Song of Solomon 2:8-11

The Bride Adores Her Beloved

8 The voice of my beloved!
Behold, he comes,
leaping ^aover the mountains,
bounding over the hills.
9 My beloved is like ^ba gazelle
or a young stag.
Behold, there he stands
behind our wall,
gazing through the windows,
looking through the lattice.
10 My beloved speaks and says to me:
^c“Arise, my love, my beautiful one,
and come away,
11 for behold, the winter is past;
^dthe rain is over and gone.
