5 “^[a]I have ^(A)come into my garden, ^(B)my sister, my bride;
I have gathered my ^(C)myrrh along with my balsam.
I have eaten my honeycomb ^[b]and my ^(D)honey;
I have ^(E)drunk my wine ^[c]and my milk.
Eat, ^(F)friends;
Drink and ^[d]imbibe deeply, O lovers.”

⁵ For as a young man marries a virgin,
So your sons will marry you;
And as the ^[a]bridegroom rejoices over the bride,
So your ^(A)God will rejoice over you.
