Song of Solomon 5:1
Showing verse 1 with surrounding context.
1
I 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
2
I 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, and my hair with the dampness of the night.”
3
I have taken off my robe. Indeed, must I put it on? I have washed my feet. Indeed, must I soil them?
4
My beloved thrust his hand in through the latch opening. My heart pounded for him.
