New American Standard Bible 1995

The Torment of Separation

1“1I have 2comeH935 into my gardenH1588, 3my sisterH269, my brideH3618; I have gatheredH717 my 4myrrhH4753 alongH5973 with my balsamH1314. I have eatenH398 my honeycombH3293 5and my 6honeyH1706; I have 7drunkH8354 my wineH3196 8and my milkH2461. EatH398, 9friendsH7453; DrinkH8354 and 10imbibeH7937 deeplyH7937, O loversH1730.”

2“11I was asleepH3463 but my heartH3820 was awakeH5782. A voiceH6963! My belovedH1730 was knockingH1849: ‘OpenH6605 to me, 12my sisterH269, my darlingH7474, 13My doveH3123, my perfectH8535 oneH8535! For my headH7218 is 14drenchedH4390 with dewH2919, My 15locksH6977 with the 16dampH7447 of the nightH3915.’3I have 17takenH6584 offH6584 my dressH3801, HowH351 can I putH3847 it on again? I have 18washedH7364 my feetH7272, HowH351 can I dirtyH2936 them again?4My belovedH1730 extendedH7971 his handH3027 throughH4480 the openingH2356, And my 1920feelingsH4578 were arousedH1993 for him.5I aroseH6965 to openH6605 to my belovedH1730; And my handsH3027 21drippedH5197 with myrrhH4753, And my fingersH676 with 22liquidH5674 myrrhH4753, On the handlesH3709 of the boltH4514.6I openedH6605 to my belovedH1730, But my belovedH1730 had 23turnedH2559 awayH2559 and had goneH5674! My 24heartH5315 wentH3318 out to him as he 25spokeH1696. I 26searchedH1245 for him but I did not findH4672 him; I 27calledH7121 him but he did not answerH6030 me.7The 28watchmenH8104 who makeH5437 the roundsH5437 in the cityH5892 foundH4672 me, They struckH5221 me and woundedH6481 me; The guardsmenH8104 of the wallsH2346 tookH5375 away my shawlH7289 from me.8I 29adjureH7650 you, O daughtersH1323 of JerusalemH3389, IfH518 you findH4672 my belovedH1730, As to whatH4100 you will tellH5046 him: For 30I am lovesickH2470H160.”

9“3132WhatH4100 kind of belovedH1730 is your belovedH1730, O 33most beautifulH3303 among womenH802? 34WhatH4100 kind of belovedH1730 is your belovedH1730, That thusH3602 you adjureH7650 us?”

Admiration by the Bride

10“35My belovedH1730 is dazzlingH6703 and 36ruddyH122, 3738OutstandingH1713 amongH4480 tenH7233 thousandH7233.11His headH7218 is like goldH3800, pureH6337 goldH6337; His 39locksH6977 are like clustersH8534 of datesH8534 And blackH7838 as a ravenH6158.12His 40eyesH5869 are like dovesH3123 BesideH5921 streamsH650 of waterH4325, BathedH7364 in milkH2461, And 41reposedH3427 in their 42settingH4402.13His cheeksH3895 are like a 43bedH6170 of balsamH1314, BanksH4026 of sweet-scentedH4840 herbsH4840; His lipsH8193 are 44liliesH7799 45DrippingH5197 with liquidH5674 myrrhH4753.14His handsH3027 are rodsH1551 of goldH2091 SetH4390 with 46berylH8658; His abdomenH4578 is carvedH6247 ivoryH8127 InlaidH5968 with 4748sapphiresH5601.15His legsH7785 are pillarsH5982 of alabasterH8337 SetH3245 on pedestalsH134 of pureH6337 goldH6337; His appearanceH4758 is like 49LebanonH3844 ChoiceH977 as the 50cedarsH730.16His 5152mouthH2441 is full of sweetnessH4477.
