New International Version
4 Daughters of Jerusalem, I charge you:
Do not arouse or awaken love
until it so desires.(A)
Friends
5 Who is this coming up from the wilderness(B)
leaning on her beloved?
She
Under the apple tree I roused you;
there your mother conceived(C) you,
there she who was in labor gave you birth.
6 Place me like a seal over your heart,
like a seal on your arm;
for love(D) is as strong as death,
its jealousy[a](E) unyielding as the grave.
It burns like blazing fire,
like a mighty flame.[b]

King James Version
4 I charge you, O daughters of Jerusalem, that ye stir not up, nor awake my love, until he please.
5 Who is this that cometh up from the wilderness, leaning upon her beloved? I raised thee up under the apple tree: there thy mother brought thee forth: there she brought thee forth that bare thee.
6 Set me as a seal upon thine heart, as a seal upon thine arm: for love is strong as death; jealousy is cruel as the grave: the coals thereof are coals of fire, which hath a most vehement flame.
