Song of Solomon 7:11-13
English Standard Version
The Bride Gives Her Love
11 (A)Come, my beloved,
let us go out into the fields
and lodge in the villages;[a]
12 let us go out early to the vineyards
(B)and see whether the vines have budded,
whether (C)the grape blossoms have opened
and the pomegranates are in bloom.
There I will give you my love.
13 (D)The mandrakes give forth fragrance,
and beside our doors are all choice fruits,
(E)new as well as old,
which I have laid up for you, O my beloved.

Let us go out to the country,
let us spend the night in the villages.[a]

and over our doors are all the choice fruits,
