Song of Songs 5:2-8
2“1I was asleepH3463 but my heartH3820 was awakeH5782. A voiceH6963! My belovedH1730 was knockingH1849: ‘OpenH6605 to me, 2my sisterH269, my darlingH7474, 3My doveH3123, my perfectH8535 oneH8535! For my headH7218 is 4drenchedH4390 with dewH2919, My 5locksH6977 with the 6dampH7447 of the nightH3915.’3I have 7takenH6584 offH6584 my dressH3801, HowH351 can I putH3847 it on again? I have 8washedH7364 my feetH7272, HowH351 can I dirtyH2936 them again?4My belovedH1730 extendedH7971 his handH3027 throughH4480 the openingH2356, And my 910feelingsH4578 were arousedH1993 for him.5I aroseH6965 to openH6605 to my belovedH1730; And my handsH3027 11drippedH5197 with myrrhH4753, And my fingersH676 with 12liquidH5674 myrrhH4753, On the handlesH3709 of the boltH4514.6I openedH6605 to my belovedH1730, But my belovedH1730 had 13turnedH2559 awayH2559 and had goneH5674! My 14heartH5315 wentH3318 out to him as he 15spokeH1696. I 16searchedH1245 for him but I did not findH4672 him; I 17calledH7121 him but he did not answerH6030 me.7The 18watchmenH8104 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 19adjureH7650 you, O daughtersH1323 of JerusalemH3389, IfH518 you findH4672 my belovedH1730, As to whatH4100 you will tellH5046 him: For 20I am lovesickH2470H160.”
