Song of Songs 5:1-3

New International Reader's Version

5 “My bride, I have come into my garden.
    My sister, I’ve gathered my myrrh and my spice.
I’ve eaten my honeycomb and my honey.
    I’ve drunk my wine and my milk.”

“Friends, eat and drink.
    Drink up all the love you want.”

² “I slept, but my heart was awake.
    Listen! The one who loves me is knocking.
He says, ‘My sister, I love you.
    Open up so I can come in.
You are my dove.
    You are perfect in every way.
My head is soaked with dew.
    The night air has made my hair wet.’
