Song of Solomon

Chapter 3

1 By night3915 on5921 my bed4904 I sought1245 him whom my soul5315 loves:157 I sought1245 him, but I found4672 him not.

2 I will rise6965 now,4994 and go5437 about5437 the city5892 in the streets,7784 and in the broad7339 ways7339 I will seek1245 him whom my soul5315 loves:157 I sought1245 him, but I found4672 him not.

3 The watchmen8104 that go5437 about5437 the city5892 found4672 me: to whom I said, Saw7200 you him whom853 my soul5315 loves?157

4 It was but a little4592 that I passed5674 from them, but I found4672 him whom my soul5315 loves:157 I held270 him, and would not let him go,7503 until5704 I had brought935 him into413 my mother's517 house,1004 and into413 the chamber2315 of her that conceived2029 me.

5 I charge7650 you, O you daughters1323 of Jerusalem,3389 by the roes,6643 and by the hinds355 of the field,7704 that you stir5782 not up, nor518 awake5782 my love,160 till5704 he please.2654

6 Who4310 is this2063 that comes5927 out of the wilderness4057 like pillars8490 of smoke,6227 perfumed6999 with myrrh4753 and frankincense,3828 with all3605 powders81 of the merchant?7402

7 Behold2009 his bed,4296 which is Solomon's;8010 three score7657 valiant1368 men are about5439 it, of the valiant1368 of Israel.3478

8 They all3605 hold270 swords,2719 being expert3925 in war:4421 every man376 has his sword2719 on his thigh3409 because of fear6343 in the night.3915

9 King4428 Solomon8010 made6213 himself a chariot668 of the wood6086 of Lebanon.3844

10 He made6213 the pillars5982 thereof of silver,3701 the bottom7507 thereof of gold,2091 the covering4817 of it of purple,713 the middle8432 thereof being paved7528 with love,160 for the daughters1323 of Jerusalem.3389

11 Go3318 forth,3318 O you daughters1323 of Zion,6726 and behold7200 king4428 Solomon8010 with the crown5850 with which his mother517 crowned5849 him in the day3117 of his espousals,2861 and in the day3117 of the gladness8057 of his heart.3820

Song of Solomon

Chapter 3

1 UPON my bed by night I sought him whom my soul loves; I sought him but found him not.

2 I will rise now and go about the city in the streets, and in the broad ways I will seek him whom my soul loves; I sought him but I found him not.

3 The watchmen that go about the city found me; I asked them, Have you seen him whom my soul loves?

4 Scarcely had I passed by them, when I found him whom my soul loves; I held him, and would not let him go until I had brought him into my mother's house and into the chamber of her that bore me.

5 I charge you, O daughters of Jerusalem, by the gazelles or by the young roes of the field, that you stir not up nor awake my love till it please.

6 Who is this that comes up from the wilderness like pillars of smoke, perfumed with myrrh and frankincense, compounded from all kinds of powdered sweet spices?

7 Behold, the litter of Solomon is surrounded by sixty mighty men of the valiant of Israel.

8 They all hold swords, being expert in war; every man has his sword upon his thigh because of fear in the night.

9 King Solomon made himself a palace of wood of Lebanon.

10 He made its pillars of silver, the floor thereof of gold, the covering of it of purple, the inside thereof being paved with a love gift from the daughters of Jerusalem.

11 Go forth, O you daughters of Zion, and behold King Solomon with the crown with which his mother crowned him in the day of his wedding and in the day of the joy of his heart.
