Song of Solomon 2:3

1 I am the rose of Sharon,
And the lily of the valleys.

The Beloved

2 Like a lily among thorns,
So is my love among the daughters.

The Shulamite

3 Like an apple tree among the trees of the woods,
So is my beloved among the sons.
I sat down in his shade with great delight,
And ^ahis fruit was sweet to my taste.

The Shulamite to the Daughters of Jerusalem

4 He brought me to the¹ banqueting house,
And his banner over me was love.

5 Sustain me with cakes of raisins,
Refresh me with apples,
For I am lovesick.

6 ^aHis left hand is under my head,
And his right hand embraces me.

7 ^aI¹ charge you, O daughters of Jerusalem,
By the gazelles or by the does of the field,
Do not stir up nor awaken love
Until it pleases.
