5:1 I
have
come
in
to
my
garden,
my
sister-spouse,
I
have
plucked
my
myrrh
with
my
spice,
I
have
eaten
my
comb
with
my
honey,
I
have
drunk
my
wine
with
my
milk.
Eat,
O
friends,
drink,
Yea,
drink
abundantly,
O
beloved
ones!
5:2 I
am
sleeping,
but
my
heart
waketh:
The
sound
of
my
beloved
knocking!
`Open
to
me,
my
sister,
my
friend,
My
dove,
my
perfect
one,
For
my
head
is
filled
[with]
dew,
My
locks
[with]
drops
of
the
night.'
5:3 I
have
put
off
my
coat,
how
do
I
put
it
on
I
have
washed
my
feet,
how
do
I
defile
them
5:4 My
beloved
sent
his
hand
from
the
net-work,
And
my
bowels
were
moved
for
him.
5:5 I
rose
to
open
to
my
beloved,
And
my
hands
dropped
myrrh,
Yea,
my
fingers
flowing
myrrh,
On
the
handles
of
the
lock.
5:6 I
opened
to
my
beloved,
But
my
beloved
withdrew--he
passed
on,
My
soul
went
forth
when
he
spake,
I
sought
him,
and
found
him
not.
I
called
him,
and
he
answered
me
not.
5:7 The
watchmen
who
go
round
about
the
city,
Found
me,
smote
me,
wounded
me,
Keepers
of
the
walls
lifted
up
my
veil
from
off
me.
5:8 I
have
adjured
you,
daughters
of
Jerusalem,
If
ye
find
my
beloved--What
do
ye
tell
him
that
I
[am]
sick
with
love!
5:9 What
[is]
thy
beloved
above
[any]
beloved,
O
fair
among
women
What
[is]
thy
beloved
above
[any]
beloved,
That
thus
thou
hast
adjured
us
5:10 My
beloved
[is]
clear
and
ruddy,
Conspicuous
above
a
myriad!
5:11 His
head
[is]
pure
gold--fine
gold,
His
locks
flowing,
dark
as
a
raven,
5:12 His
eyes
as
doves
by
streams
of
water,
Washing
in
milk,
sitting
in
fulness.
5:13 His
cheeks
as
a
bed
of
the
spice,
towers
of
perfumes,
His
lips
[are]
lilies,
dropping
flowing
myrrh,
5:14 His
hands
rings
of
gold,
set
with
beryl,
His
heart
bright
ivory,
covered
with
sapphires,
5:15 His
limbs
pillars
of
marble,
Founded
on
sockets
of
fine
gold,
His
appearance
as
Lebanon,
choice
as
the
cedars.
5:16 His
mouth
is
sweetness--and
all
of
him
desirable,
This
[is]
my
beloved,
and
this
my
friend,
O
daughters
of
Jerusalem!
