Song of Solomon 2:7-9

Expanded Bible

⁷ ·Women [^LDaughters] of Jerusalem [1:5], ·promise me [I adjure you]
    by the gazelles and the deer of the field [^Cin Hebrew sounds like “by the (Lord) of Hosts” or “by God Almighty”]
not to awaken
    or ·excite [arouse] love
until it ·is ready [so desires; ^Clikely a warning to the women to wait for love until the right person comes along; 3:5; 8:4].

⁸ I hear ·my lover’s voice [the sound of my lover].
    Here he comes ·jumping [leaping] across the mountains,
    ·skipping [bounding] over the hills [^Che moves with agile grace and speed].
⁹ My lover is like a gazelle or a young ·deer [stag].
    Look, he stands behind our wall
·peeking [staring] through the windows,
    looking through the ·blinds [lattice].
