Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not natural language units and hence sometimes only part of a sentence will be visible. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed as a tool for doing comparisons of different translations. Click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. The OET segments on this page are still very early looks into the unfinished texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

ClVg Læva ejus sub capite meo, et dextera illius amplexabitur me.[fn]
(Left_hand his under head mine, and right_hand of_that will_be_embraced me. )
2.6 Læva ejus. Noli aliunde capiti requiem quærere; si enim lævam ejus habueris, omnia tibi, quæ mea sunt tribuentur. Læva ejus sub capite meo. Cum corda fidelium in hac vita, per sacramentorum participationem, per pignus Spiritus, per Scripturarum solatia confortantur: quæ et ad subsidium peregrinationis dat Deus: dextera amplexabitur, cum post hanc vitam cœlestia præmia accipiemus. Læva id est, præsens vita, et temporalia Dei dona, dum per spem mentem roborat, est sub capite ad consolationem data: et dextera, id est æterna vita amplexabitur, sicut protegens, quando per remunerationem nos glorificabit. Quasi: Temporalia Dei beneficia quo a mundi cupiditatibus et perturbationibus aliquantulum quiescere queam adjuvant in hoc loco peregrinationis, et æternorum promissio amplius delectat.

2:1-7 In this short poem, the man and the woman exchange compliments. Using metaphors of flowers and trees, they describe the nature of their loving relationship, emphasizing his role as protector and provider.
• The poem ends (2:6) with the man and the woman in an intimate embrace.
שְׂמֹאלוֹ֙ תַּ֣חַת לְרֹאשִׁ֔י וִימִינ֖וֹ תְּחַבְּקֵֽנִי
left_hand_of,his below/instead_of to,head_of,my and,right_hand_of,his embraces,me
This verse could be describing: (1) an action that the man was doing, in which case it should be translated in a similar way to the ULT. (2) a request or wish that the woman has, and not something which has already happened. Alternate translation: [I hope he puts his left arm under my head and holds me close with his right arm] or [I want him to put his left arm under my head and hold me close with his right arm]
שְׂמֹאלוֹ֙ תַּ֣חַת לְרֹאשִׁ֔י
left_hand_of,his below/instead_of to,head_of,my
Alternate translation: [The man I love cradles my head on his left arm]
