New King James Version

Song Of Solomon 2:4-9 New King James Version (NKJV)

4. He brought me to the 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. His left hand is under my head,And his right hand embraces me.

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

8. The voice of my beloved!Behold, he comesLeaping upon the mountains,Skipping upon the hills.

9. My beloved is like a gazelle or a young stag.Behold, he stands behind our wall;He is looking through the windows,Gazing through the lattice.
