1  By night³⁹¹⁵ on⁵⁹²¹ my bed⁴⁹⁰⁴ I sought^{1245 853} him whom my soul⁵³¹⁵ loveth:^{7945 157} I sought¹²⁴⁵ him, but I found⁴⁶⁷² him not.³⁸⁰⁸

2  I will rise⁶⁹⁶⁵ now,⁴⁹⁹⁴ and go about⁵⁴³⁷ the city⁵⁸⁹² in the streets,⁷⁷⁸⁴ and in the broad ways⁷³³⁹ I will seek¹²⁴⁵ him whom my soul⁵³¹⁵ loveth:^{7945 157} I sought¹²⁴⁵ him, but I found⁴⁶⁷² him not.³⁸⁰⁸

3  The watchmen⁸¹⁰⁴ that go about⁵⁴³⁷ the city⁵⁸⁹² found⁴⁶⁷² me: to whom I said, Saw⁷²⁰⁰ ye ⁸⁵³ him whom my soul⁵³¹⁵ loveth?^{7945 157}

4  It was but a little⁴⁵⁹² that I passed^{7945 5674} from⁴⁴⁸⁰ them, but⁵⁷⁰⁴ I found^{7945 4672 853} him whom my soul⁵³¹⁵ loveth:^{7945 157} I held²⁷⁰ him, and would not³⁸⁰⁸ let him go,⁷⁵⁰³ until⁵⁷⁰⁴ I had brought^{7945 935} him into⁴¹³ my mother's⁵¹⁷ house,¹⁰⁰⁴ and into⁴¹³ the chamber²³¹⁵ of her that conceived²⁰²⁹ me.

5  I charge⁷⁶⁵⁰ you, O ye daughters¹³²³ of Jerusalem,³³⁸⁹ by the roes,⁶⁶⁴³ and¹⁷⁶ by the hinds³⁵⁵ of the field,⁷⁷⁰⁴ that ye stir not up,^{5782 518} nor⁵¹⁸ awake^{5782 853} my love,¹⁶⁰ till⁵⁷⁰⁴ he please.^{7945 2654}

6  Who⁴³¹⁰ is this²⁰⁶³ that cometh⁵⁹²⁷ out of⁴⁴⁸⁰ the wilderness⁴⁰⁵⁷ like pillars⁸⁴⁹⁰ of smoke,⁶²²⁷ perfumed⁶⁹⁹⁹ with myrrh⁴⁷⁵³ and frankincense,³⁸²⁸ with all^{4480 3605} powders⁸¹ of the merchant?⁷⁴⁰²

7  Behold²⁰⁰⁹ his bed,⁴²⁹⁶ which is Solomon's;^{7945 8010} threescore⁸³⁴⁶ valiant men¹³⁶⁸ are about⁵⁴³⁹ it, of the valiant^{4480 1368} of Israel.³⁴⁷⁸

8  They all³⁶⁰⁵ hold²⁷⁰ swords,²⁷¹⁹ being expert³⁹²⁵ in war:⁴⁴²¹ every man³⁷⁶ hath his sword²⁷¹⁹ upon⁵⁹²¹ his thigh³⁴⁰⁹ because of fear^{4480 6343} in the night.³⁹¹⁵

9  King⁴⁴²⁸ Solomon⁸⁰¹⁰ made⁶²¹³ himself a chariot⁶⁶⁸ of the wood^{4480 6086} of Lebanon.³⁸⁴⁴

10  He made⁶²¹³ the pillars⁵⁹⁸² thereof of silver,³⁷⁰¹ the bottom⁷⁵⁰⁷ thereof of gold,²⁰⁹¹ the covering⁴⁸¹⁷ of it of purple,⁷¹³ the midst⁸⁴³² thereof being paved⁷⁵²⁸ with love,¹⁶⁰ for the daughters¹³²³ of Jerusalem.³³⁸⁹

11  Go forth,³³¹⁸ O ye daughters¹³²³ of Zion,⁶⁷²⁶ and behold⁷²⁰⁰ king⁴⁴²⁸ Solomon⁸⁰¹⁰ with the crown⁵⁸⁵⁰ wherewith his mother⁵¹⁷ crowned^{7945 5849} him in the day³¹¹⁷ of his espousals,²⁸⁶¹ and in the day³¹¹⁷ of the gladness⁸⁰⁵⁷ of his heart.³⁸²⁰

1 ἐπὶ κοίτην μου ἐν νυξὶν ἐζήτησα ὃν ἠγάπησεν ἡ ψυχή μου ἐζήτησα αὐτὸν καὶ οὐχ εὗρον αὐτόν ἐκάλεσα αὐτόν καὶ οὐχ ὑπήκουσέν μου

2 ἀναστήσομαι δὴ καὶ κυκλώσω ἐν τῇ πόλει ἐν ταῖς ἀγοραῖς καὶ ἐν ταῖς πλατείαις καὶ ζητήσω ὃν ἠγάπησεν ἡ ψυχή μου ἐζήτησα αὐτὸν καὶ οὐχ εὗρον αὐτόν

3 εὕροσάν με οἱ τηροῦντες οἱ κυκλοῦντες ἐν τῇ πόλει μὴ ὃν ἠγάπησεν ἡ ψυχή μου εἴδετε

4 ὡς μικρὸν ὅτε παρῆλθον ἀπ᾽ αὐτῶν ἕως οὗ εὗρον ὃν ἠγάπησεν ἡ ψυχή μου ἐκράτησα αὐτὸν καὶ οὐκ ἀφήσω αὐτόν ἕως οὗ εἰσήγαγον αὐτὸν εἰς οἶκον μητρός μου καὶ εἰς ταμίειον τῆς συλλαβούσης με

5 ὥρκισα ὑμᾶς θυγατέρες Ιερουσαλημ ἐν ταῖς δυνάμεσιν καὶ ἐν ταῖς ἰσχύσεσιν τοῦ ἀγροῦ ἐὰν ἐγείρητε καὶ ἐξεγείρητε τὴν ἀγάπην ἕως ἂν θελήσῃ

6 τίς αὕτη ἡ ἀναβαίνουσα ἀπὸ τῆς ἐρήμου ὡς στελέχη καπνοῦ τεθυμιαμένη σμύρναν καὶ λίβανον ἀπὸ πάντων κονιορτῶν μυρεψοῦ

7 ἰδοὺ ἡ κλίνη τοῦ Σαλωμων ἑξήκοντα δυνατοὶ κύκλῳ αὐτῆς ἀπὸ δυνατῶν Ισραηλ

8 πάντες κατέχοντες ῥομφαίαν δεδιδαγμένοι πόλεμον ἀνὴρ ῥομφαία αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ μηρὸν αὐτοῦ ἀπὸ θάμβους ἐν νυξίν

9 φορεῖον ἐποίησεν ἑαυτῷ ὁ βασιλεὺς Σαλωμων ἀπὸ ξύλων τοῦ Λιβάνου

10 στύλους αὐτοῦ ἐποίησεν ἀργύριον καὶ ἀνάκλιτον αὐτοῦ χρύσεον ἐπίβασις αὐτοῦ πορφυρᾶ ἐντὸς αὐτοῦ λιθόστρωτον ἀγάπην ἀπὸ θυγατέρων Ιερουσαλημ

11 ἐξέλθατε καὶ ἴδετε ἐν τῷ βασιλεῖ Σαλωμων ἐν τῷ στεφάνῳ ᾧ ἐστεφάνωσεν αὐτὸν ἡ μήτηρ αὐτοῦ ἐν ἡμέρᾳ νυμφεύσεως αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐν ἡμέρᾳ εὐφροσύνης καρδίας αὐτοῦ

1 [In lectulo meo, per noctes,
quæsivi quem diligit anima mea:
quæsivi illum, et non inveni.

2 Surgam, et circuibo civitatem:
per vicos et plateas
quæram quem diligit anima mea:
quæsivi illum, et non inveni.

3 Invenerunt me vigiles qui custodiunt civitatem:
Num quem diligit anima mea vidistis?

4 Paululum cum pertransissem eos,
inveni quem diligit anima mea:
tenui eum, nec dimittam,
donec introducam illum in domum matris meæ,
et in cubiculum genetricis meæ.

5 Adjuro vos, filiæ Jerusalem,
per capreas cervosque camporum,
ne suscitetis, neque evigilare faciatis dilectam,
donec ipsa velit.

6 Quæ est ista quæ ascendit per desertum
sicut virgula fumi ex aromatibus myrrhæ,
et thuris, et universi pulveris pigmentarii?

7 En lectulum Salomonis sexaginta fortes ambiunt
ex fortissimis Israël,

8 omnes tenentes gladios, et ad bella doctissimi:
uniuscujusque ensis super femur suum
propter timores nocturnos.

9 Ferculum fecit sibi rex Salomon
de lignis Libani;

10 columnas ejus fecit argenteas,
reclinatorium aureum, ascensum purpureum;
media caritate constravit,
propter filias Jerusalem.

11 Egredimini et videte, filiæ Sion,
regem Salomonem in diademate quo coronavit illum mater sua
in die desponsationis illius,
et in die lætitiæ cordis ejus.]
