Unchecked Copy BoxSng 5:1 - I am come into my garden, my sister, my spouse; I have gathered my myrrh with my spice; I have eaten my honeycomb with my honey; I have drunk my wine with my milk. Eat, O friends; drink, yea, drink abundantly, beloved ones!
Unchecked Copy BoxSng 5:2 - I slept, but my heart was awake. The voice of my beloved! he knocketh: Open to me, my sister, my love, my dove, mine undefiled; For my head is filled with dew, My locks with the drops of the night.
Unchecked Copy BoxSng 5:3 - -- I have put off my tunic, how should I put it on? I have washed my feet, how should I pollute them? --
Unchecked Copy BoxSng 5:4 - My beloved put in his hand by the hole of the door; And my bowels yearned for him.
Unchecked Copy BoxSng 5:5 - I rose up to open to my beloved; And my hands dropped with myrrh, And my fingers with liquid myrrh, Upon the handles of the lock.
Unchecked Copy BoxSng 5:6 - I opened to my beloved; But my beloved had withdrawn himself; he was gone: My soul went forth when he spoke. I sought him, but I found him not; I called him, but he gave me no answer.
Unchecked Copy BoxSng 5:7 - The watchmen that went about the city found me; They smote me, they wounded me; The keepers of the walls took away my veil from me.
Unchecked Copy BoxSng 5:8 - I charge you, daughters of Jerusalem, If ye find my beloved, ... What will ye tell him? -- That I am sick of love.
Unchecked Copy BoxSng 5:9 - What is thy beloved more than another beloved, Thou fairest among women? What is thy beloved more than another beloved, That thou dost so charge us?

Admiration by the Bride

Unchecked Copy BoxSng 5:10 - My beloved is white and ruddy, The chiefest among ten thousand.
Unchecked Copy BoxSng 5:11 - His head is as the finest gold; His locks are flowing, black as the raven;
Unchecked Copy BoxSng 5:12 - His eyes are like doves by the water-brooks, Washed with milk, fitly set;
Unchecked Copy BoxSng 5:13 - His cheeks are as a bed of spices, raised beds of sweet plants; His lips lilies, dropping liquid myrrh.
Unchecked Copy BoxSng 5:14 - His hands gold rings, set with the chrysolite; His belly is bright ivory, overlaid with sapphires;
Unchecked Copy BoxSng 5:15 - His legs, pillars of marble, set upon bases of fine gold: His bearing as Lebanon, excellent as the cedars;
Unchecked Copy BoxSng 5:16 - His mouth is most sweet: Yea, he is altogether lovely. This is my beloved, yea, this is my friend, O daughters of Jerusalem.

In 1867, John Nelson Darby translated the New Testament from Greek into English. Further revisions were done in 1872 and 1884. Darby’s work was first published as The Holy Scriptures: A New Translation from the Original Languages by J. N. Darby. After Darby’s death in 1882, some of his students worked together to produce the complete Darby Bible based on the Masoretic Hebrew text, Darby’s German (Elberfelder), and the French (Pau) translations. In 1890, the first complete Darby Bible was published in English. This translation of the Bible is in the public domain.
