Song of Songs 2 :: King James Version (KJV)

Sng 2:1

Sng 2:1I am the rose of Sharon, and the lily of the valleys.

Sng 2:2

Sng 2:2As the lily among thorns, so is my love among the daughters.

Sng 2:3

Sng 2:3As the apple tree among the trees of the wood, so is my beloved among the sons. I sat down under his shadow with great delight, and his fruit was sweet to my taste.

Sng 2:4

Sng 2:4He brought me to the banqueting house, and his banner over me was love.

Sng 2:5

Sng 2:5Stay me with flagons, comfort me with apples: for I am sick of love.

Sng 2:6

Sng 2:6His left hand is under my head, and his right hand doth embrace me.

Sng 2:7

Sng 2:7I charge you, O ye daughters of Jerusalem, by the roes, and by the hinds of the field, that ye stir not up, nor awake my love, till he please.

Sng 2:8

Sng 2:8The voice of my beloved! behold, he cometh leaping upon the mountains, skipping upon the hills.

Sng 2:9

Sng 2:9My beloved is like a roe or a young hart: behold, he standeth behind our wall, he looketh forth at the windows, shewing himself through the lattice.

Sng 2:10

Sng 2:10My beloved spake, and said unto me, Rise up, my love, my fair one, and come away.

Sng 2:11

Sng 2:11For, lo, the winter is past, the rain is over and gone;

Sng 2:12

Sng 2:12The flowers appear on the earth; the time of the singing of birds is come, and the voice of the turtle is heard in our land;

Sng 2:13

Sng 2:13The fig tree putteth forth her green figs, and the vines with the tender grape give a good smell. Arise, my love, my fair one, and come away.

Sng 2:14

Sng 2:14O my dove, that art in the clefts of the rock, in the secret places of the stairs, let me see thy countenance, let me hear thy voice; for sweet is thy voice, and thy countenance is comely.

Sng 2:15

Sng 2:15Take us the foxes, the little foxes, that spoil the vines: for our vines have tender grapes.

Sng 2:16

Sng 2:16My beloved is mine, and I am his: he feedeth among the lilies.

Sng 2:17

Sng 2:17Until the day break, and the shadows flee away, turn, my beloved, and be thou like a roe or a young hart upon the mountains of Bether.
