Song of Songs 5:4-6
Modern English Version
4 My beloved put his hand by the latch,
and my heart yearned for him.
5 I rose up to open to my beloved,
and my hands dripped with myrrh,
my fingers with liquid myrrh
on the handles of the bolt.
6 I opened to my beloved,
but my beloved had turned and was gone.
My soul failed me when he spoke.
I sought him, but found him not;
I called him, but he gave no answer.
Song of Songs 5:4-6
New International Version
4 My beloved thrust his hand through the latch-opening;
my heart began to pound for him.
5 I arose to open for my beloved,
and my hands dripped with myrrh,(A)
my fingers with flowing myrrh,
on the handles of the bolt.
6 I opened for my beloved,(B)
but my beloved had left; he was gone.(C)
My heart sank at his departure.[a]
I looked(D) for him but did not find him.
I called him but he did not answer.
