Song of Solomon 8:4-6
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition
4 I adjure you, O daughters of Jerusalem,
do not stir up or awaken love
until it is ready!
Homecoming
5 Who is that coming up from the wilderness,
leaning upon her beloved?
Under the apple tree I awakened you.
There your mother was in labour with you;
there she who bore you was in labour.
6 Set me as a seal upon your heart,
as a seal upon your arm;
for love is strong as death,
passion fierce as the grave.
Its flashes are flashes of fire,
a raging flame.
