Song Of Solomon Chapter 3 (NIV)

undefined All night long on my bedI looked for the one my heart loves;I looked for him but did not find him.
undefined I will get up now and go about the city,through its streets and squares;I will search for the one my heart loves.So I looked for him but did not find him.
undefined The watchmen found meas they made their rounds in the city.“Have you seen the one my heart loves?”
undefined Scarcely had I passed themwhen I found the one my heart loves.I held him and would not let him gotill I had brought him to my mother’s house,to the room of the one who conceived me.
undefined Daughters of Jerusalem, I charge youby the gazelles and by the does of the field:Do not arouse or awaken loveuntil it so desires.
undefined Who is this coming up from the desertlike a column of smoke,perfumed with myrrh and incensemade from all the spices of the merchant?
undefined Look! It is Solomon’s carriage,escorted by sixty warriors,the noblest of Israel,
undefined all of them wearing the sword,all experienced in battle,each with his sword at his side,prepared for the terrors of the night.
undefined King Solomon made for himself the carriage;he made it of wood from Lebanon.
undefined Its posts he made of silver,its base of gold.Its seat was upholstered with purple,its interior lovingly inlaidby the daughters of Jerusalem.
undefined Come out, you daughters of Zion,and look at King Solomon wearing the crown,the crown with which his mother crowned himon the day of his wedding,the day his heart rejoiced.
