11I went down into the garden of nuts to see the afruits of the valley,
And bto see whether the vine flourished, and bthe cpomegranates dbudded.
12Or ever I was aware,
My soul made me like the echariots of Ammi-nadib.
13Return, return, O fShulamite;
Return, return, that we may look upon thee.
What will ye see in the Shulamite?
As it were the gcompany of two armies.
VII.

ESVEnglish Standard Version
I went down to the nut orchard
to look at the blossoms of the valley,
to see whether the vines had budded,
whether the pomegranates were in bloom.
Before I was aware, my desire set me
among the chariots of my kinsman, a prince.
Return, return, O Shulammite,
return, return, that we may look upon you.
Why should you look upon the Shulammite,
as upon a dance before two armies?

NIVNew International Version (2011)
I went down to the grove of nut trees
to look at the new growth in the valley,
to see if the vines had budded
or the pomegranates were in bloom.
Before I realized it,
my desire set me among the royal chariots of my people.
Come back, come back, O Shulammite;
come back, come back, that we may gaze on you!
Why would you gaze on the Shulammite
as on the dance of Mahanaim?

CSBChristian Standard Bible
I came down to the walnut grove
to see the blossoms of the valley,
to see if the vines were budding
and the pomegranates blooming.
I didn’t know what was happening to me.
I felt like I was
in a chariot with a nobleman.
Come back, come back, Shulammite!
Come back, come back, that we may look at you!
How you gaze at the Shulammite,
as you look at the dance of the two camps!

NLTNew Living Translation
I went down to the grove of walnut trees
and out to the valley to see the new spring growth,
to see whether the grapevines had budded
or the pomegranates were in bloom.
Before I realized it,
my strong desires had taken me to the chariot of a noble man.
Return, return to us, O maid of Shulam.
Come back, come back, that we may see you again.
Why do you stare at this young woman of Shulam,
as she moves so gracefully between two lines of dancers?
