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.

Holman Christian Standard Bible
11 Come, my love,
let’s go to the field;
let’s spend the night among the henna blossoms.[a]
12 Let’s go early to the vineyards;
let’s see if the vine has budded,
if the blossom has opened,
if the pomegranates are in bloom.(A)
There I will give you my love.
13 The mandrakes(B) give off a fragrance,
and at our doors is every delicacy—
new as well as old.
I have treasured them up for you, my love.
