Song of Songs 1:7-8
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
7 Tell me, you whom my soul loves,
where you pasture your flock,
where you make it lie down at noon,
for why should I be like one who is veiled
beside the flocks of your companions?(A)
8 If you do not know,
O fairest among women,
follow the tracks of the flock
and pasture your kids
beside the shepherds’ tents.(B)
Song of Solomon 1:7-8
International Standard Version
7 Tell me, you whom I love,
where do you graze your flock?
Where do you make your flock lie down[a] at noon?
Why should I be considered a veiled woman[b]
beside the flocks of your companions?
The Lover
8 If you don’t know, most beautiful of women,
go out after the flock and graze your young goats beside the shepherd’s tents.
