Song of Solomon 7:11-13
New King James Version
11 Come, my beloved,
Let us go forth to the field;
Let us lodge in the villages.
12 Let us get up early to the vineyards;
Let us (A)see if the vine has budded,
Whether the grape blossoms are open,
And the pomegranates are in bloom.
There I will give you my love.
13 The (B)mandrakes give off a fragrance,
And at our gates (C)are pleasant fruits,
All manner, new and old,
Which I have laid up for you, my beloved.
Song of Solomon 7:11-13
Lexham English Bible
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.
