Song of Solomon 2:6-8

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

⁶ [I can feel] ^[a]his left hand under my head and his right hand embraces me!^(A)

⁷ [He said] I charge you, O you daughters of Jerusalem, by the gazelles or by the hinds of the field [which are free to follow their own instincts] that you not try to stir up or awaken [my] love until it pleases.

⁸ [Vividly she pictured it] The voice of my beloved [shepherd]! Behold, he comes, leaping upon the mountains, bounding over the hills.^(B)
