Song Of Songs 5:3-8 Darby Translation 1890 (DARBY)

3. --I have put off my tunic, how should I put it on? I have washed my feet, how should I pollute them? --

4. My beloved put in his hand by the hole of the door; And my bowels yearned for him.

5. I rose up to open to my beloved; And my hands dropped with myrrh, And my fingers with liquid myrrh, Upon the handles of the lock.

6. I opened to my beloved; But my beloved had withdrawn himself; he was gone: My soul went forth when he spoke. I sought him, but I found him not; I called him, but he gave me no answer.

7. The watchmen that went about the city found me; They smote me, they wounded me; The keepers of the walls took away my veil from me.

8. I charge you, daughters of Jerusalem, If ye find my beloved, ...What will ye tell him? --That I am sick of love.
