^17 (A)Until the day breathes and the shadows flee,
Turn, my beloved, and be like a ^(B)gazelle
Or a young stag ^(C)on the mountains of ^[a]Bether.”

⁵ “^[a]I ^(A)call you to solemnly swear, O daughters of Jerusalem,
By the ^(B)gazelles or by the hinds of the field,
That you do not arouse or awaken my love
Until ^[b]she pleases.”

¹⁴ “^[a][b]Hurry, my beloved,
And be ^(A)like a gazelle or a young ^[c]stag
On the ^(B)mountains of spices.”
