Song of Songs 4:12-5:1
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
12 A garden locked is my sister, my bride,
a garden[a] locked, a fountain sealed.(A)
13 Your channel[b] is an orchard of pomegranates
with all choicest fruits,
henna with nard,(B)
14 nard and saffron, calamus and cinnamon,
with all trees of frankincense,
myrrh and aloes,
with all chief spices—(C)
15 a garden fountain, a well of living water,
and flowing streams from Lebanon.(D)
16 Awake, O north wind,
and come, O south wind!
Blow upon my garden
that its fragrance may be wafted abroad.
Let my beloved come to his garden
that he may eat its choicest fruits.(E)
5 I come to my garden, my sister, my bride;
I gather my myrrh with my spice;
I eat my honeycomb with my honey;
I drink my wine with my milk.
Eat, friends, drink,
and be drunk with love.(F)
Song of Solomon 4:12-5:1
International Standard Version
12 My sister, my[a] bride, is a locked garden
a locked rock garden, a sealed up spring.
13 Your shoots are an orchard[b] of pomegranates,
with choice fruit, henna with nard,
14 nard and saffron,
calamus and cinnamon,
with all the trees of frankincense,
along with myrrh and aloes, and all the finest spices.[c]
15 You are a garden spring,
a well of fresh water,
streams flowing from Lebanon.
The Loved One
16 Awake, north wind, and come, south wind.
Make my garden breathe out,
let its fragrance[d] flow.
Let my beloved come into his garden,
and let him eat its choicest fruits.
The Lover
5 I’ve come into my garden, my sister, my[e] bride;
I’ve gathered my myrrh with my spices.
I’ve eaten my honeycomb with my honey.
I’ve drunk my wine with my milk.
Eat, friends!
Drink and become drunk with love.
