Song of Songs 5:2-4
Legacy Standard Bible
2 “[a]I was asleep, but my heart was awake.
A voice! My beloved was knocking:
‘Open to me, (A)my sister, my darling,
(B)My dove, my perfect one!
For my head is full of dew,
My (C)locks with the [b]damp of the night.’
3 I have (D)taken off my long-sleeved garment,
How can I put it on again?
I have (E)washed my feet,
How can I dirty them again?
4 My beloved sent forth his hand through the opening,
And my [c](F)feelings moaned for him.

2 I slept but my heart was awake.
Listen! My beloved is knocking:
“Open to me, my sister, my darling,
my dove,(A) my flawless(B) one.(C)
My head is drenched with dew,
my hair with the dampness of the night.”
3 I have taken off my robe—
must I put it on again?
I have washed my feet—
must I soil them again?
4 My beloved thrust his hand through the latch-opening;
my heart began to pound for him.
