New Century Version

Song Of Songs 5:4-7 New Century Version (NCV)

4. My lover put his hand through the opening,and I felt excited inside.

5. I got up to open the door for my lover.Myrrh was dripping from my handsand flowing from my fingers,onto the handles of the lock.

6. I opened the door for my lover,but my lover had left and was gone.When he spoke, he took my breath away.I looked for him, but I could not find him;I called for him, but he did not answer.

7. The watchmen found meas they patrolled the city.They hit me and hurt me;the guards on the wall took away my veil.
