[sitteth] at his table

my spikenard
<05373>

sendeth forth

A bundle
<06872>

unto me; he shall lie
<03885> (8799)

all night betwixt my breasts
<07699>_.

My beloved
<01730>

[is] unto me [as] a cluster
<0811>

of camphire
<03724>

in the vineyards

The beams
<06982>

I [am] the rose
<02261>

of Sharon
<08289>_,

2:2

As the lily
<07799>

among thorns
<02336>_,

so [is] my love
<07474>

among the daughters
<01323>_.

As the apple tree
<08598>

among the trees
<06086>

of the wood

among the sons
<01121>_.

I sat
<03427> (8804)

down under his shadow
<06738>

with great delight
<02530> (8765)_,

for I [am] sick
<02470> (8802)

of love
<0160>_.

His left hand
<08040>

[is] under my head

and his right hand
<03225>

doth embrace
<02263> (8762)

me.

I charge
<07650> (8689)

you, O ye daughters

and
<0176>

by the hinds
<0355>

of the field
<07704>_,

that ye stir not up
<05782> (8686)_,

nor awake
<05782> (8787)

[my] love
<0160>_,

till he please
<02654> (8799)_.

2:8

The voice
<06963>

of my beloved
<01730>_!

behold, he cometh
<0935> (8802)

leaping
<01801> (8764)

upon the mountains
<02022>_,

skipping

upon the hills

My beloved
<01730>

is like
<01819> (8802)

hart
<0354>_:

behold, he standeth
<05975> (8802)

behind
<0310>

our wall
<03796>_,

he looketh forth
<07688> (8688)

at the windows
<02474>_,

<06965> (8798)_,

my love
<07474>_,

my fair one

and come away
<03212> (8798)_.

For, lo, the winter
<05638>

[and] gone
<01980> (8804)_;

2:12

The flowers
<05339>

appear
<07200> (8738)

on the earth
<0776>_;

the time
<06256>

of the singing
<02158>

[of birds] is come
<05060> (8689)_,

and the voice
<06963>

2:13

The fig tree
<08384>

putteth forth
<02590> (8804)

her green figs
<06291>_,

and the vines
<01612>

[with] the tender grape
<05563>

give
<05414> (8804)

a [good] smell
<07381>_.

Arise
<06965> (8798)_,

my love
<07474>_,

my fair one
<03303>_,

and come away
<03212> (8798)_.

[that art] in the clefts
<02288>

of the rock
<05553>_,

in the secret
<05643>

[places] of the stairs
<04095>_,

let me see
<07200> (8685)

thy countenance
<04758>_,

let me hear
<08085> (8685)

thy voice
<06963>_;

us the foxes

the vines
<03754>_:

for our vines
<03754>

[have] tender grapes
<05563>_.

My beloved
<01730>

[is] mine, and I [am] his: he feedeth

Until the day
<03117>

break
<06315> (8799)_,

and the shadows
<06752>

flee away
<05127> (8804)_,

turn
<05437> (8798)_,

my beloved
<01730>_,

and be thou like
<01819> (8798)

a roe
<06643>

or a young
<06082>

hart
<0354>

upon the mountains
<02022>

of Bether
<01336>_.

3:1

By night
<03915>

on my bed
<04904>

I sought
<01245> (8765)

him whom my soul
<05315>

loveth
<0157> (8804)_:

I sought
<01245> (8765)

him, but I found
<04672> (8804)

him not.

3:2

I will rise
<06965> (8799)

now, and go about
<05437> (8779)

the city
<05892>

in the streets
<07784>_,

and in the broad ways
<07339>

I will seek
<01245> (8762)

him whom my soul
<05315>

loveth
<0157> (8804)_:

I sought
<01245> (8765)

him, but I found
<04672> (8804)

him not.

3:3

The watchmen
<08104> (8802)

that go about
<05437> (8802)

the city
<05892>

found
<04672> (8804)

me: [to whom I said], Saw
<07200> (8804)

ye him whom my soul
<05315>

loveth
<0157> (8804)_?

3:4

[It was] but a little
<04592>

that I passed
<05674> (8804)

from them, but I found
<04672> (8804)

him whom my soul
<05315>

loveth
<0157> (8804)_:

I held
<0270> (8804)

him, and would not let him go
<07503> (8686)_,

until I had brought
<0935> (8689)

him into my mother's
<0517>

house
<01004>_,

and into the chamber
<02315>

of her that conceived
<02029> (8802)

me.

3:5

I charge
<07650> (8689)

you, O ye daughters
<01323>

of Jerusalem
<03389>_,

by the roes
<06643>_,

and
<0176>

by the hinds
<0355>

of the field
<07704>_,

that ye stir not up
<05782> (8686)_,

nor awake
<05782> (8787)

[my] love
<0160>_,

till he please
<02654> (8799)_.
