Song of Solomon 8:4-6
New Living Translation
4 Promise me, O women of Jerusalem,
not to awaken love until the time is right.[a]
Young Women of Jerusalem
5 Who is this sweeping in from the desert,
leaning on her lover?
Young Woman
I aroused you under the apple tree,
where your mother gave you birth,
where in great pain she delivered you.
6 Place me like a seal over your heart,
like a seal on your arm.
For love is as strong as death,
its jealousy[b] as enduring as the grave.[c]
Love flashes like fire,
the brightest kind of flame.
