Song of Solomon 3:1-4 ▼

1 By night on my bed, I sought him whom my soul loves. I sought him, but I didn’t find him.

2 I will get up now, and go about the city; in the streets and in the squares I will seek him whom my soul loves. I sought him, but I didn’t find him.

3 The watchmen who go about the city found me; “Have you seen him whom my soul loves?”

4 I had scarcely passed from them, when I found him whom my soul loves. I held him, and would not let him go, until I had brought him into my mother’s house, into the room of her who conceived me.
