Song of Solomon 7:13

Love for othersMarriage

11 Come, my beloved, let us go to the countryside; let us spend the night among the wildflowers.

12 Let us go early to the vineyards to see if the vine has budded, if the blossom has opened, if the pomegranates are in bloom— there I will give you my love.

The mandrakes send forth a fragrance, and at our door is every delicacy, new as well as old, that I have treasured up for you, my beloved.
