Song of Solomon 5
World English Bible
Lover
5 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.
5 I rose up to open for my beloved.
My hands dripped with myrrh,
my fingers with liquid myrrh,
on the handles of the lock.
6 I opened to my beloved;
but my beloved left, and had 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.
7 The 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.
8 I adjure you, daughters of Jerusalem,
If you find my beloved,
that you tell him that I am faint with love.
Friends
9 How 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
10 My beloved is white and ruddy.
The best among ten thousand.
11 His head is like the purest gold.
His hair is bushy, black as a raven.
12 His eyes are like doves beside the water brooks,
washed with milk, mounted like jewels.
13 His cheeks are like a bed of spices with towers of perfumes.
His lips are like lilies, dropping liquid myrrh.
14 His hands are like rings of gold set with beryl.
His body is like ivory work overlaid with sapphires.
15 His legs are like pillars of marble set on sockets of fine gold.
His appearance is like Lebanon, excellent as the cedars.
16 His mouth is sweetness;
yes, he is altogether lovely.
This is my beloved, and this is my friend,
daughters of Jerusalem.
Song of Solomon 5
King James Version
5 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, O beloved.
2 I sleep, but my heart waketh: it is the voice of my beloved that knocketh, saying, Open to me, my sister, my love, my dove, my undefiled: for my head is filled with dew, and my locks with the drops of the night.
3 I have put off my coat; how shall I put it on? I have washed my feet; how shall I defile them?
4 My beloved put in his hand by the hole of the door, and my bowels were moved for him.
5 I rose up to open to my beloved; and my hands dropped with myrrh, and my fingers with sweet smelling myrrh, upon the handles of the lock.
6 I opened to my beloved; but my beloved had withdrawn himself, and was gone: my soul failed when he spake: I sought him, but I could not find him; I called him, but he gave me no answer.
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.
8 I charge you, O daughters of Jerusalem, if ye find my beloved, that ye tell him, that I am sick of love.
9 What is thy beloved more than another beloved, O thou fairest among women? what is thy beloved more than another beloved, that thou dost so charge us?
10 My beloved is white and ruddy, the chiefest among ten thousand.
11 His head is as the most fine gold, his locks are bushy, and black as a raven.
12 His eyes are as the eyes of doves by the rivers of waters, washed with milk, and fitly set.
13 His cheeks are as a bed of spices, as sweet flowers: his lips like lilies, dropping sweet smelling myrrh.
14 His hands are as gold rings set with the beryl: his belly is as bright ivory overlaid with sapphires.
15 His legs are as pillars of marble, set upon sockets of fine gold: his countenance is as Lebanon, excellent as the cedars.
16 His mouth is most sweet: yea, he is altogether lovely. This is my beloved, and this is my friend, O daughters of Jerusalem.

Ang Dating Biblia (1905)
5 Ako'y dumating sa aking halamanan, kapatid ko, kasintahan ko: aking dinampot ang aking mira pati ang aking especia; aking kinain ang aking pulotpukyutan pati ang aking pulot; aking ininom ang aking alak pati ang aking gatas. Magsikain kayo, Oh mga kaibigan; magsiinom kayo, oo, magsiinom kayo ng sagana, Oh sinisinta.
2 Ako'y nakatulog, nguni't ang aking puso ay gising: ang tinig ng aking sinta ang siyang tumutuktok, na kaniyang sinasabi, pagbuksan mo ako, kapatid ko, sinta ko, kalapati ko, sakdal ko: sapagka't ang aking ulo ay basa ng hamog, ang aking mga kulot na buhok ay ng mga patak ng gabi.
3 Aking hinubad ang aking suot; paanong aking isusuot? Aking hinugasan ang aking mga paa paanong sila'y aking dudumhan?
4 Isinuot ng aking sinta ang kaniyang kamay sa butas ng pintuan, at nakilos ang aking puso sa kaniya.
5 Ako'y bumangon upang pagbuksan ang aking sinta; at ang aking mga kamay ay tutulo ng mira, at ang aking mga daliri ng malabnaw na mira. Sa mga tatangnan ng trangka.
6 Aking pinagbuksan ang aking sinta: nguni't ang aking sinta ay umurong at nakaalis, napanglupaypay na ako ng aking kaluluwa nang siya'y magsalita: aking hinanap siya, nguni't hindi ko nasumpungan siya; aking tinawag siya, nguni't hindi siya sumagot sa akin.
7 Nasumpungan ako ng mga bantay na nagsisilibot sa bayan, sinaktan nila ako, sinugatan nila ako, inalis sa akin ang aking balabal ng mga tanod ng mga kuta.
8 Pinagbibilinan ko kayo, Oh mga anak na babae ng Jerusalem, kung inyong masumpungan ang aking sinta, na inyong saysayin sa kaniya, na ako'y may sakit, na pagsinta.
9 Ano ang iyong sinta na higit kay sa ibang sinta, Oh ikaw na pinakamaganda sa mga babae? Ano ang iyong sinta na higit kay sa ibang sinta, na iyong ibinibilin sa amin ng ganyan?
10 Ang aking sinisinta ay maputi at mapulapula na pinakamainam sa sangpung libo.
11 Ang kaniyang ulo ay gaya ng pinakamainam na ginto: ang kaniyang kulot na buhok ay malago at maitim na gaya ng uwak.
12 Ang kaniyang mga mata ay gaya ng mga kalapati sa siping ng mga batis ng tubig; na hinugasan ng gatas at bagay ang pagkalagay.
13 Ang kaniyang mga pisngi ay gaya ng pitak ng mga especia, gaya ng mga bunton ng mga mainam na gulay: ang kaniyang mga labi ay gaya ng mga lila na tumutulo ng malabnaw na mira.
14 Ang kaniyang mga kamay ay gaya ng mga singsing na ginto na may lakip na berilo: ang kaniyang katawan ay gaya ng yaring garing na binalot ng mga zafiro.
15 Ang kaniyang mga hita ay gaya ng haliging marmol, na nalalapag sa mga tungtungan na dalisay na ginto: ang kaniyang anyo ay gaya ng Libano na marilag na gaya ng mga sedro.
16 Ang kaniyang bibig ay pinakamatamis: Oo, siya'y totoong kaibigibig. Ito'y aking sinta at ito'y aking kaibigan, Oh mga anak na babae ng Jerusalem.
