Song of Solomon 8:3-5

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

³ [Then musingly she added] Oh, that his left hand were under my head and that his right hand embraced me!^(A)

⁴ I adjure you, O daughters of Jerusalem, that you never [again attempt to] stir up or awaken love until it pleases.

⁵ Who is this who comes up from the wilderness leaning upon her beloved? [And as they sighted the home of her childhood, the bride said] Under the apple tree I awakened you; there your mother gave you birth, there she was in travail and bore you.
