‘Arise, my love, my fair one,
And come away.

The rain is over and gone.

The time for singing has come,
And the voice of the turtledove is heard in our land.

10 “My beloved responded and said to me,
(A)Arise, my darling, my beautiful one,
And come along.
11 For behold, the winter is past,
The rain is over and gone.
12 The blossoms have already appeared in the land;
The time has arrived for [a]pruning the vines,
And the voice of the (B)turtledove has been heard in our land.
13 The (C)fig tree has ripened its fruit,
And the (D)vines in blossom have given forth their fragrance.
Arise, my darling, my beautiful one,
And come along!’”
