Song of Solomon 5 - World English Bible

1&gt;1 I have come into my garden, my sister, my bride.&lt;

2&gt;2 I was asleep, but my heart was awake.&lt;

3&gt;3 I have taken off my robe. Indeed, must I put it on?&lt;

4&gt;4 My beloved thrust his hand in through the latch opening.&lt;

5&gt;5 I rose up to open for my beloved.&lt;

6&gt;6 I opened to my beloved;&lt;

7&gt;7 The watchmen who go about the city found me.&lt;

8&gt;8 I adjure you, daughters of Jerusalem,&lt;

9&gt;9 How is your beloved better than another beloved,&lt;

10&gt;10 My beloved is white and ruddy.&lt;

11&gt;11 His head is like the purest gold.&lt;

12&gt;12 His eyes are like doves beside the water brooks,&lt;

13&gt;13 His cheeks are like a bed of spices with towers of perfumes.&lt;

14&gt;14 His hands are like rings of gold set with beryl.&lt;

15&gt;15 His legs are like pillars of marble set on sockets of fine gold.&lt;

16&gt;16 His mouth is sweetness;&lt;
