Song of Solomon 4:12-5:1
American Standard Version
12 A garden [a]shut up is my sister, my bride;
A spring shut up, a fountain sealed.
13 Thy shoots are [b]an orchard of pomegranates, with precious fruits;
Henna with spikenard plants,
14 Spikenard and saffron,
Calamus and cinnamon, with all trees of frankincense;
Myrrh and aloes, with all the chief spices.
15 Thou art a fountain of gardens,
A well of living waters,
And flowing streams from Lebanon.
16 Awake, O north wind; and come, thou south;
Blow upon my garden, that the spices thereof may flow out.
Let my beloved come into his garden,
And eat his precious fruits.
5 I am come into my garden, my sister, my bride:
I have gathered my myrrh with my [c]spice;
I have eaten my honeycomb with my honey;
I have drunk my wine with my milk.
Eat, O friends;
Drink, yea, drink abundantly, [d]O beloved.
