Song of Songs 5 :: Hebrew Names Version (HNV)

Sng 5:1

Sng 5:1I have come into my garden, my sister, my bride. I have gathered my myrrh with my spice; I have eaten my honeycomb with my honey; I have drunk my wine with my milk. Friends Eat, friends! Drink, yes, drink abundantly, beloved. Beloved

Sng 5:2

Sng 5:2I was asleep, but my heart was awake. It is the voice of my beloved who knocks: Open to me, my sister, my love, my dove, my undefiled; For my head is filled with dew, My hair with the dampness of the night.

Sng 5:3

Sng 5:3I have taken off my robe. Indeed, must I put it on? I have washed my feet. Indeed, must I soil them?

Sng 5:4

Sng 5:4My beloved thrust his hand in through the latch opening. My heart pounded for him.

Sng 5:5

Sng 5:5I rose up to open for my beloved. My hands dripped with myrrh, My fingers with liquid myrrh, On the handles of the lock.

Sng 5:6

Sng 5:6I opened to my beloved; But my beloved left; gone away. My heart went out when he spoke. I looked for him, but I didn't find him. I called him, but he didn't answer.

Sng 5:7

Sng 5:7The watchmen who go about the city found me. They beat me. They bruised me. The keepers of the walls took my cloak away from me.

Sng 5:8

Sng 5:8I adjure you, daughters of Yerushalayim, If you find my beloved, That you tell him that I am faint with love. Friends

Sng 5:9

Sng 5:9How is your beloved better than another beloved, You fairest among women? How is your beloved better than another beloved, That you do so adjure us? Beloved

Admiration by the Bride

Sng 5:10

Sng 5:10My beloved is white and ruddy. The best among ten thousand.

Sng 5:11

Sng 5:11His head is like the purest gold. His hair is bushy, black as a raven.

Sng 5:12

Sng 5:12His eyes are like doves beside the water brooks, Washed with milk, mounted like jewels.

Sng 5:13

Sng 5:13His cheeks are like a bed of spices with towers of perfumes. His lips are like lilies, dropping liquid myrrh.

Sng 5:14

Sng 5:14His hands are like rings of gold set with bareket. His body is like ivory work overlaid with sapphires.

Sng 5:15

Sng 5:15His legs are like pillars of marble set on sockets of fine gold. His appearance is like Levanon, excellent as the cedars.

Sng 5:16

Sng 5:16His mouth is sweetness; Yes, he is altogether lovely. This is my beloved, and this is my friend, Daughters of Yerushalayim. Friends
