Song of Songs 6:11-12
New Catholic Bible
Bride:
11 I went down to the orchard of nut trees
to look at the green shoots in the valley,[a]
to see whether the vines had budded
and whether the pomegranates were in bloom.
12 Before I realized it, my desire had placed me
in a chariot beside my prince.[b]
