15 Catch for us the foxes,
    the little foxes destroying vineyards,
for[a] our vineyards are in blossom!

Poetic Refrain(s)

16 My beloved belongs to me and I belong to him;[b]
    he pastures his flock among the lilies.
17 Until the day breathes and the shadows flee,
    turn, my beloved!
        Be like[c] a gazelle[d] or young stag[e] on the cleft mountains.[f]
