Song of Solomon 7:11-13
American Standard Version
11 Come, my beloved, let us go forth into the field;
Let us lodge in the villages.
12 Let us get up early to the vineyards;
Let us see whether the vine hath budded,
And [a]its blossom is open,
And the pomegranates are in flower:
There will I give thee my love.
13 The mandrakes give forth fragrance;
And [b]at our doors are all manner of precious fruits, new and old,
Which I have laid up for thee, O my beloved.

Rendezvous in the Countryside
11 Come, my beloved, let us go out to the countryside;[a]
let us spend the night[b] in the villages.
12 Let us rise early to go[c] to the vineyards;
let us see whether the vine has budded,[d]
whether the grape blossom has opened,
and whether the pomegranates are in bloom;[e]
there I will give my love to you.
13 The mandrakes give off their fragrance,
and over our doorway is every kind of delicious fruit;[f]
both fresh and dried fruit I have stored up[g] for you, O my beloved.
