Song of Solomon 8:2-4

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

² I would lead you and bring you
    into the house of my mother,
    and into the chamber of the one who bore me.^[a]
I would give you spiced wine to drink,
    the juice of my pomegranates.
³ O that his left hand were under my head,
    and that his right hand embraced me!
⁴ I adjure you, O daughters of Jerusalem,
    do not stir up or awaken love
    until it is ready!
