3:1 | By night <03915> on my bed <04904> I sought <01245> (8765) him whom my soul <05315> loveth <0157> (8804): I sought <01245> (8765) him, but I found <04672> (8804) him not. |
3:2 | I will rise <06965> (8799) now, and go about <05437> (8779) the city <05892> in the streets <07784>, and in the broad ways <07339> I will seek <01245> (8762) him whom my soul <05315> loveth <0157> (8804): I sought <01245> (8765) him, but I found <04672> (8804) him not. |
3:3 | The watchmen <08104> (8802) that go about <05437> (8802) the city <05892> found <04672> (8804) me: [to whom I said], Saw <07200> (8804) ye him whom my soul <05315> loveth <0157> (8804)? |
3:4 | [It was] but a little <04592> that I passed <05674> (8804) from them, but I found <04672> (8804) him whom my soul <05315> loveth <0157> (8804): I held <0270> (8804) him, and would not let him go <07503> (8686), until I had brought <0935> (8689) him into my mother's <0517> house <01004>, and into the chamber <02315> of her that conceived <02029> (8802) me. |
3:5 | I charge <07650> (8689) you, O ye daughters <01323> of Jerusalem <03389>, by the roes <06643>, and <0176> by the hinds <0355> of the field <07704>, that ye stir not up <05782> (8686), nor awake <05782> (8787) [my] love <0160>, till he please <02654> (8799). |
3:6 | Who [is] this that cometh <05927> (8802) out of the wilderness <04057> like pillars <08490> of smoke <06227>, perfumed <06999> (8794) with myrrh <04753> and frankincense <03828>, with all powders <081> of the merchant <07402> (8802)? |
3:7 | Behold his bed <04296>, which [is] Solomon's <08010>; threescore <08346> valiant <01368> men [are] about <05439> it, of the valiant <01368> of Israel <03478>. |
3:8 | They all hold <0270> (8803) swords <02719>, [being] expert <03925> (8794) in war <04421>: every man <0376> [hath] his sword <02719> upon his thigh <03409> because of fear <06343> in the night <03915>. |
3:9 | King <04428> Solomon <08010> made <06213> (8804) himself a chariot <0668> of the wood <06086> of Lebanon <03844>. {a chariot: or, a bed} |
3:10 | He made <06213> (8804) the pillars <05982> thereof [of] silver <03701>, the bottom <07507> thereof [of] gold <02091>, the covering <04817> of it [of] purple <0713>, the midst <08432> thereof being paved <07528> (8803) [with] love <0160>, for the daughters <01323> of Jerusalem <03389>. |
3:11 | Go forth <03318> (8798), O ye daughters <01323> of Zion <06726>, and behold <07200> (8798) king <04428> Solomon <08010> with the crown <05850> wherewith his mother <0517> crowned <05849> (8765) him in the day <03117> of his espousals <02861>, and in the day <03117> of the gladness <08057> of his heart <03820>. |
