Song of Solomon 8:4-6

Living Bible

⁴ I adjure you, O women of Jerusalem, not to awaken him until he pleases.”

The Young Women of Jerusalem: ⁵ “Who is this coming up from the desert, leaning on her beloved?”

King Solomon: “Under the apple tree where your mother gave birth to you in her travail, there I awakened your love.”

The Girl: ⁶ “Seal me in your heart with permanent betrothal, for love is strong as death, and jealousy is as cruel as Sheol. It flashes fire, the very flame of Jehovah.
