    and pasture your kids
    beside the shepherds’ tents.(B)

Tell me, you whom my soul loves,
    where you pasture your flock,
    where you make it lie down at noon;

If you do not know,
    O fairest among women,
follow in the tracks of the flock,
    and pasture your kids
    beside the shepherds’ tents.
