Song of Solomon 5:3-5

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

³ [But weary from a day in the vineyards, I had already sought my rest] I had put off my garment—^[a]how could I [again] put it on? I had washed my feet—how could I [again] soil them?^(A)

⁴ My beloved put in his hand by the hole of the door, and my heart was moved for him.

⁵ I rose up to open for my beloved, and my hands dripped with myrrh, and my fingers with liquid [sweet-scented] myrrh, [which he had left] upon the handles of the bolt.
