Song of Songs 2:1-3
Modern English Version
2 I am the rose of Sharon,
the lily of the valleys.
The Man
2 As a lily among thorns,
so is my love among the maidens.
The Woman
3 As an apple tree among the trees of the forest,
so is my beloved among the young men.
In his shadow I sat with great delight,
and his fruit was sweet to my taste.
Song of Solomon 2:1-3
New King James Version
A Country Girl in a Palace
2 I am the rose of Sharon,
And the lily of the valleys.
The Beloved
2 Like a lily among thorns,
So is my love among the daughters.
The Shulamite
3 Like an apple tree among the trees of the woods,
So is my beloved among the sons.
I sat down in his shade with great delight,
And (A)his fruit was sweet to my taste.
