4 verses in the King James Version. Word study for “until” →
Until the day break, and the shadows flee away, turn, my beloved, and be thou like a roe or a young hart upon the mountains of Bether.
It was but a little that I passed from them, but I found him whom my soul loveth: I held him, and would not let him go, until I had brought him into my mother’s house, and into the chamber of her that conceived me.
Until the day break, and the shadows flee away, I will get me to the mountain of myrrh, and to the hill of frankincense.
I charge you, O daughters of Jerusalem, that ye stir not up, nor awake my love, until he please.
