Song of Songs 5:2-8

2I sleptH3462, but my heartH3820 was awakeH5782. The voiceH6963 of my beloved! he knocketh: OpenH6605 to me, my sisterH269, my love, my doveH3123, mine undefiled; For my headH7218 is filledH4390 with dewH2919, My locksH6977 with the drops of the nightH3915.

3— I have putH3847 off my tunicH3801, howH349 should I putH3847 it on? I have washedH7364 my feetH7272, howH349 should I pollute them? —

4My beloved put in his handH3027 by the holeH2356 [of the door]; And my bowelsH4578 yearned for him.

5I roseH6965 up to openH6605 to my beloved; And my handsH3027 dropped with myrrhH4753, And my fingersH676 with liquid myrrhH4753, Upon the handles of the lock.

6I openedH6605 to my beloved; But my beloved had withdrawn himself; he was goneH3318: My soulH5315 wentH3318 forthH3318 when he spokeH1696. I soughtH1245 him, but I foundH4672 him not; I calledH7121 him, but he gave me no answerH6030.

7The watchmenH8104 that wentH5437 about the cityH5892 foundH4672 me; They smote me, they woundedH5221 me; The keepersH8104 of the wallsH2346 tookH5375 awayH5375 my veil from me.

8I charge you, daughtersH1323 of JerusalemH3389, If ye findH4672 my beloved, ...What will ye tellH5046 him? — That I am sickH2470 of loveH160.
