Song of Songs 5:2-8

2I was asleepH3462, but my heartH3820 waked: it is the voiceH6963 of my belovedH1730 that knocketh, sayingH6963, OpenH6605 to meH6963, my sisterH269, my loveH1730, my doveH3123, my undefiled: for my headH7218 is filledH4390 with dewH2919, my locksH6977 with the drops of the nightH3915.

3I have putH3847 offH6584 my coatH3801; howH349 shall I putH3847 it on? I have washedH7364 my feetH7272; howH349 shall I defile them?

4My belovedH1730 putH7971 in his handH3027 by the holeH2356 of the door, and my heartH4578 was movedH1993 for him.

5I roseH6965 upH6965 to openH6605 to my belovedH1730; and my handsH3027 droppedH5197 with myrrhH4753, and my fingersH676 with liquid myrrhH4753, uponH5921 the handlesH3709 of the boltH4514.

6I openedH6605 to my belovedH1730; but my belovedH1730 had withdrawn himselfH5315, and was goneH3318. My soulH5315 had failedH3318 meH5315 when he spake: I soughtH1245 him, but I could notH3808 findH4672 him; I calledH7121 him, but he gaveH7121 meH5315 noH3808 answerH6030.

7The watchmenH8104 that goH5437 aboutH5921 the cityH5892 foundH4672 meH5921, they smoteH5221 meH5921, they woundedH5221 meH5921; the keepersH8104 of the wallsH2346 tookH5375 awayH5375 my mantle from meH5921.

8I adjureH7650 youH518, O daughtersH1323 of JerusalemH3389, ifH518 ye findH4672 my belovedH1730, that ye tellH5046 him, that I am sickH2470 of loveH160.
