Song of Solomon 2:10-12
Lexham English Bible
10 My beloved answered and said to me,
“Arise,[a] my beloved! Come, my beauty![b]
11 For look! The winter is over;
the rainy season[c] has turned and gone away.[d]
12 The blossoms appear[e] in the land;[f]
the time of singing[g] has arrived;[h]
the voice of the turtledove is heard in our land.
