Song of Songs 5:6-15
6I openedH6605 to my belovedH1730; but my belovedH1730 had withdrawn himselfH5315, and was goneH3318.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.
9WhatH4100 is thy belovedH1730 more than anotherH802 belovedH1730, O thou fairest among womenH802? whatH4100 is thy belovedH1730 more than anotherH802 belovedH1730, that thou dost soH3602 adjureH7650 us?
10My belovedH1730 is white and ruddyH122, the chiefest among tenH7233 thousandH7233.
11His headH7218 is as the most fineH6337 goldH3800, his locksH6977 are bushy, and blackH7838 as a ravenH6158.
12His eyesH5869 are like dovesH3123 besideH5921 the waterH4325 brooksH650; washedH7364 with milkH2461, and fitly setH3427.
13His cheeksH3895 are as a bedH6170 of spicesH1314, as banksH4026 of sweetH1314 herbsH4840: his lipsH8193 are as liliesH7799, dropping liquid myrrhH4753.
14His handsH3027 are as ringsH1550 of goldH2091 setH4390 with berylH8658: his bodyH4578 is as ivoryH8127 work overlaid with sapphiresH5601.
15His legsH7785 are as pillarsH5982 of marble, setH3245 uponH5921 socketsH134 of fineH8336 goldH6337: his aspect is like LebanonH3844, excellent as the cedarsH730.
