Song of Solomon 5
1I have 2 I have gathered my myrrh with my spice; 2 I have eaten my honeycomb with my honey; 2 I have drunk my wine with my milk. Friends 1 Eat, friends! 2 Drink, yes, drink abundantly, beloved. Beloved 1
2I 2 It is the voice of my beloved who knocks: 2 “ Open to me, my sister, my love, my dove, my undefiled; 2 for my head is filled with dew, 2 and my hair with the dampness of the night.” 1
3I have 2 I have washed my feet. Indeed, must I soil them? 1
4My 2 My heart pounded for him. 1
5I 2 My hands dripped with myrrh, 2 my fingers with liquid myrrh, 2 on the handles of the lock. 1
6I 2 but my beloved left, and had gone away. 1 My heart went out when he spoke. 2 I looked for him, but I didn’t find him. 2 I called him, but he didn’t answer. 1
7The 2 They beat me. 2 They bruised me. 2 The keepers of the walls took my cloak away from me. 1
8I 2 If you find my beloved, 2 that you tell him that I am faint with love. Friends 1
9How 2 you fairest amongst women? 1 How is your beloved better than another beloved, 1 that you do so adjure us? Beloved 1
10My beloved 2 The best amongst ten thousand. 1
11His 2 His hair is bushy, black as a raven. 1
12His 2 washed with milk, mounted like jewels. 1
13His 2 His lips are like lilies, dropping liquid myrrh. 1
14His 2 His body is like ivory work overlaid with sapphires. 1
15His 2 His appearance is like Lebanon, excellent as the cedars. 1
16His 2 yes, he is altogether lovely. 1 This is my beloved, and this is my friend, 2 daughters of Jerusalem.
