Song of Solomon 2:10

Verse 10 of 17. The 2nd of 8 chapters in Song of Solomon, in Poetry and Wisdom.

6His left hand is under my head. His right hand embraces me.

7I adjure you, daughters of Jerusalem, by the roes, or by the hinds of the field, that you not stir up, nor awaken love, until it so desires.

8The voice of my beloved! Behold, he comes, leaping on the mountains, skipping on the hills.

9My beloved is like a roe or a young deer. Behold, he stands behind our wall! He looks in at the windows. He glances through the lattice.

10My beloved spoke, and said to me, “Rise up, my love, my beautiful one, and come away.

11For behold, the winter is past. The rain is over and gone.

12The flowers appear on the earth. The time of the singing has come, and the voice of the turtledove is heard in our land.

13The fig tree ripens her green figs. The vines are in blossom. They give out their fragrance. Arise, my love, my beautiful one, and come away.”

14My dove in the clefts of the rock, in the hiding places of the mountainside, let me see your face. Let me hear your voice; for your voice is sweet and your face is lovely.
