GOD’S WORD Translation
[ GROOM ]
5 My bride, my sister, I will come to my garden.
I will gather my myrrh with my spice.
I will eat my honeycomb with my honey.
I will drink my wine with my milk.
Eat, my friends!
Drink and become intoxicated with expressions of love!

Listen! My beloved is knocking.

Open to me, my true love, my sister,

My head is wet with dew,
my hair with the dewdrops of night.
[ BRIDE ]
3 I have taken off my clothes! Why should I put them on ⌞again⌟?
I have washed my feet! Why should I get them dirty ⌞again⌟?
