11 Come, my beloved, let us go out into the [a]fields,
Let us spend the night in the villages.
12 Let us rise early and go to the vineyards;
Let us (A)see whether the vine has flourished
And its blossoms have opened,
And whether the pomegranates have bloomed.
There I will give you my love.
13 The (B)mandrakes have given forth fragrance;
And over our doors are all (C)choice fruits,
Both new and old,
Which I have treasured up for you, my beloved.

  1. Song of Songs 7:11 Lit field

11 I belong to my lover,
and his desire is for me.

12 Come, my lover,
let us go to the fields.
Let us spend the night in the villages.
13 Let us go early to the vineyards.
We will see if the vines have budded,
if their blossoms have opened,
if the pomegranates are in bloom.
There I will give my love to you.
The mandrakes send out their fragrance.
At our door is every delicacy,
new as well as old,
that I have stored up for you, my lover.
