Song of Songs 2:6-15

⁶Put your left arm under my head and with your right arm hold me close.

⁷You young women of Jerusalem, solemnly promise me, while the does and gazelles are listening, that you will not disturb us while we are making love until we are ready to quit.

⁸I hear the voice of the man who loves me. It is as though MET he is leaping over the mountains and skipping over the hills

⁹like SIM a deer or a gazelle. Now he is standing outside the wall of our house, looking in the window, and peering through the ◄lattice/wooden strips inside the window frame►.

¹⁰He spoke to me and said, “You whom I love, get up; my beautiful one, come with me CHI!

¹¹Look, the ◄winter/cold season► is ended; the rain has stopped;

¹²flowers are blooming throughout the country/land. It is now time to sing; we hear the doves cooing.

¹³There are young/new figs on the fig trees, and there are blossoms on the grapevines and their fragrance fills the air. You whom I love, get up; my beautiful one, come with me!

¹⁴You are like MET a dove that is hiding far from me in an opening/crack in the rocky cliff. Show me your face, and allow me to hear your voice, because your voice is sweet-sounding and your face is lovely CHI.”

¹⁵There are other men who are like MET little jackals/foxes that ruin vineyards; do not allow those men to attack me.
