Song of Solomon 2:6-8
International Standard Version
6 I wish that his left hand were under my head,
and that his right hand were embracing me!
7 Swear to me, young women of Jerusalem,
by the gazelles or by the does of the field,
that you won’t awaken or arouse love
before its proper time![a]
8 The voice of my beloved!
Look! He’s coming,
leaping over the mountains,
bounding over the hills.
