Song Of Solomon 2:7

I charge you, O ye daughters of Jerusalem, by the roes, and by the hinds of the field, that ye stir not up, nor awake [my] love, till he please.

I charge {H7650} you, O ye daughters {H1323} of Jerusalem {H3389}, by the roes {H6643}, and {H176} by the hinds {H355} of the field {H7704}, that ye stir not up {H5782}, nor awake {H5782} my love {H160}, till he please {H2654}.

I warn you, daughters of Yerushalayim, by the gazelles and deer in the wilds, not to awaken or stir up love until it wants to arise!

O daughters of Jerusalem, I adjure you by the gazelles and does of the field: Do not arouse or awaken love until the time is right.

I adjure you, O daughters of Jerusalem, By the roes, or by the hinds of the field, That ye stir not up, nor awake my love, Until he please.
