Song of Solomon 2:13-17
New American Standard Bible
13 The (A)fig tree has ripened its fruit,
And the (B)vines in blossom have given forth their fragrance.
Arise, my darling, my beautiful one,
And come along!’”
The Groom
14 “(C)My dove, (D)in the clefts of the [a]rock,
In the hiding place of the mountain pathway,
Let me see [b]how you look,
(E)Let me hear your voice;
For your voice is pleasant,
And [c]you look (F)delightful.”
The Chorus
15 “(G)Catch the [d]foxes for us,
The [e]little [f]foxes that are ruining the vineyards,
While our (H)vineyards are in blossom.”
The Bride
16 “(I)My beloved is mine, and I am his;
He (J)pastures his flock among the lilies.
17 (K)Until the cool of the day, when the shadows flee,
Turn, my beloved, and be like a (L)gazelle
Or a young stag (M)on the mountains of [g]Bether.”
