Song of Solomon 2:6-8

Good News Translation

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 gazelles
    that 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.
