Song of Solomon 5:3 in context

  1. 1I am come into my garden, my sister, my bride: I have gathered my myrrh with my spice; I have eaten my honeycomb with my honey; I have drunk my wine with my milk. Eat, O friends; Drink, yea, drink abundantly, O beloved.
  2. 2I was asleep, but my heart waked: It is the voice of my beloved that knocketh, saying, Open to me, my sister, my love, my dove, my undefiled; For my head is filled with dew, My locks with the drops of the night.
  3. 3I have put off my garment; how shall I put it on? I have washed my feet; how shall I defile them?
  4. 4My beloved put in his hand by the hole of the door, And my heart was moved for him.
  5. 5I rose up to open to my beloved; And my hands dropped with myrrh, And my fingers with liquid myrrh, Upon the handles of the bolt.
