Song Of Songs 2:6-14 Good News Bible Anglicised (GNBDC)

6. His left-hand is under my head,and his right-hand caresses me.

7. Promise me, women of Jerusalem;swear by the swift deer and the gazellesthat you will not interrupt our love.

8. I hear my lover's voice.He comes running over the mountains,racing across the hills to me.

9. My lover is like a gazelle,like a young stag.There he stands beside the wall.He looks in through the windowand glances through the lattice.

10. My lover speaks to me.Come then, my love;my darling, come with me.

11. The winter is over; the rains have stopped;

12. in the countryside the flowers are in bloom.This is the time for singing;the song of doves is heard in the fields.

13. Figs are beginning to ripen;the air is fragrant with blossoming vines.Come then, my love;my darling, come with me.

14. You are like a dove that hidesin the crevice of a rock.Let me see your lovely faceand hear your enchanting voice.
