Song of Solomon 5:5-7
Holman Christian Standard Bible
5 I rose to open for my love.
My hands dripped with myrrh,(A)
my fingers with flowing myrrh
on the handles of the bolt.
6 I opened to my love,
but my love had turned and gone away.
I was crushed[a] that he had left.[b]
I sought him, but did not find him.(B)
I called him, but he did not answer.
7 The guards who go about the city found me.(C)
They beat and wounded me;
they took my cloak[c] from me—
the guardians of the walls.(D)
