Song of Songs 5
- 1 I have come into my garden, my sister, my bride. I have gathered my myrrh with my spice; I have eaten my honeycomb with my honey; I have drunk my wine with my milk. Friends Eat, friends! Drink, yes, drink abundantly, beloved. Beloved
- 2 I was asleep, but my heart was awake. It is the voice of my beloved who knocks: “Open to me, my sister, my love, my dove, my undefiled; for my head is filled with dew, and my hair with the dampness of the night.”
- 3 I have taken off my robe. Indeed, must I put it on? I have washed my feet. Indeed, must I soil them?
- 4 My beloved thrust his hand in through the latch opening. My heart pounded for him.
- 5 I rose up to open for my beloved. My hands dripped with myrrh, my fingers with liquid myrrh, on the handles of the lock.
- 6 I opened to my beloved; but my beloved left; and had gone away. My heart went out when he spoke. I looked for him, but I didn’t find him. I called him, but he didn’t answer.
- 7 The watchmen who go about the city found me. They beat me. They bruised me. The keepers of the walls took my cloak away from me.
- 8 I adjure you, daughters of Jerusalem, If you find my beloved, that you tell him that I am faint with love. Friends
- 9 How is your beloved better than another beloved, you fairest among women? How is your beloved better than another beloved, that you do so adjure us? Beloved
- 10 My beloved is white and ruddy. The best among ten thousand.
- 11 His head is like the purest gold. His hair is bushy, black as a raven.
- 12 His eyes are like doves beside the water brooks, washed with milk, mounted like jewels.
- 13 His cheeks are like a bed of spices with towers of perfumes. His lips are like lilies, dropping liquid myrrh.
- 14 His hands are like rings of gold set with beryl. His body is like ivory work overlaid with sapphires.
- 15 His legs are like pillars of marble set on sockets of fine gold. His appearance is like Lebanon, excellent as the cedars.
- 16 His mouth is sweetness; yes, he is altogether lovely. This is my beloved, and this is my friend, daughters of Jerusalem.
