Song of Solomon 5:5-7

New American Standard Bible 1995

⁵ “I arose to open to my beloved;
And my hands ^(A)dripped with myrrh,
And my fingers with ^[a]liquid myrrh,
On the handles of the bolt.
⁶ “I opened to my beloved,
But my beloved had ^(B)turned away and had gone!
My ^[b]heart went out to him as he ^(C)spoke.
I ^(D)searched for him but I did not find him;
I ^(E)called him but he did not answer me.
⁷ “The ^(F)watchmen who make the rounds in the city found me,
They struck me and wounded me;
The guardsmen of the walls took away my shawl from me.
