RBT Paraphrase:
Put her in front to myself, whom she has loved, the Soul of myself! How she is shepherding! How she is crouching within the dual noon-light of Complete One ("Solomon")!4 I am like her who wraps around over ranks of your allies.
Julia Smith Literal 1876 Translation:
Announce to me, thou whom my soul loved, where thou wilt feed, where thou wilt lie down at noon: wherefore shall I be as he covered by the herds of thy companions.
LITV Translation:
Tell me, You whom my soul loves, where do You feed; where do You lie down at noon? For why should I be as one who is veiled beside the flocks of Your companions?
Brenton Septuagint Translation:
Tell me, thou whom my soul loves, Where thou tendest thy flock, where thou causest them to rest at noon, Lest I become as one that is veiled by the flocks of thy companions.
