Song of Songs 5:3-8 -
She.
Sg.5.3-8
5
3
I had put off my garment, how could I put it on?
I had bathed my feet, how could I soil them?
5
4
My beloved put his hand to the latch,
and my heart was thrilled within me.
5
5
I arose to open to my beloved,
and my hands dripped with myrrh,
my fingers with liquid myrrh,
upon the handles of the bolt.
5
6
I opened to my beloved,
but my beloved had turned and gone.
My soul failed me when he spoke.
I sought him, but found him not;
I called him, but he gave no answer.

7
The watchmen found me,
as they went about in the city;
they beat me, they wounded me,
hey took away my mantle,
those watchmen of the walls.

8
I adjure you, O daughters of Jerusalem,
if you find my beloved,
that you tell him I am sick with love.
