Song of Solomon 3:4-6
1599 Geneva Bible
4 When I had passed a little from them, then I found him whom my soul loved: I took hold on him, and left him not, till I had brought him unto my mother’s house, into the chamber of her that conceived me.
5 [a]I charge you, O daughters of Jerusalem, by the roes and by the hinds of the field, that ye stir not up, nor waken my love until she please.
6 Who is she that cometh up out of the [b]wilderness like pillars of smoke perfumed with myrrh and incense, and with all the [c]spices of the merchant?

4 Scarcely had I passed them
when I found the one my heart loves.
I held him and would not let him go
till I had brought him to my mother’s house,(A)
to the room of the one who conceived me.(B)
5 Daughters of Jerusalem, I charge you(C)
by the gazelles and by the does of the field:
Do not arouse or awaken love
until it so desires.(D)
