Song of Solomon 2:7-9

New American Standard Bible 1995

⁷ “^[a]I ^(A)adjure you, O ^(B)daughters of Jerusalem,
By the ^(C)gazelles or by the ^(D)hinds of the field,
^(E)That you do not arouse or awaken my love
Until ^[b]she pleases.”

⁸ “^[c]Listen! My beloved!
Behold, he is coming,
Climbing ^(F)on the mountains,
Leaping on the hills!
⁹ “My beloved is like a ^(G)gazelle or a ^(H)young ^[d]stag.
Behold, he is standing behind our wall,
He is looking through the windows,
He is peering ^(I)through the lattice.
