Song of Solomon 7:11-13
Good News Translation
11 Come, darling, let's go out to the countryside
and spend the night in the villages.[a]
12 We will get up early and look at the vines
to see whether they've started to grow,
whether the blossoms are opening
and the pomegranate trees are in bloom.
There I will give you my love.
13 You can smell the scent of mandrakes,
and all the pleasant fruits are near our door.
Darling, I have kept for you
the old delights and the new.

let us spend the night in the villages.[a]

there I will give you my love.

and at our door is every delicacy,
both new and old,
that I have stored up for you, my beloved.(G)
