Song of Songs 1:7

7 Tell me, you whom my heart loves,
where you pasture your flocks,
and where you rest them at midday,[a]
so that I may not be found wandering
beside the flocks of your companions.
Footnotes
- Song of Songs 1:7 The bride is now seeking the bridegroom because they are apart. This theme runs throughout the Book (Song 3:1-4; 4:8; 5:2-8; 6:1), and the resolution occurs at the end of the Book with the mutual possession of the couple (see Song 8:5). Midday: a time for rest in hot climates. It also stands for supreme happiness (see Job 11:17; Ps 37:6; Isa 58:10).
