Besides excluding the phrase “by the female gazelles or the does of the field”, this verse is nearly identical to Song of Songs 2:7. You should translate this verse in a similar way to how you translated Song of Songs 2:7, but because this verse does not have the phrase “by the female gazelles or the does of the field” you should not include that phrase in this verse.
