Song of Solomon 3:1–4
I sought him whom my soul loves;
I sought him, but found him not;
I called him, but he gave no answer.g
2 “I will rise now and go about the city,
in the streets and in the squares;
I will seek him whom my soul loves.”
I sought him, but found him not.
as they went about in the city.
“Have you seen him whom my soul loves?”
when I found him whom my soul loves.
I held him, and would not let him go
until I had brought him into my mother’s house,
and into the chamber of her that conceived me.
