Read in context

Song of Solomon 3:1–4 · Berean Standard Bible

1 On my bed at night I sought the one I love; I sought him, but did not find him.

2 I will arise now and go about the city, through the streets and squares. I will seek the one I love. So I sought him but did not find him.

3 I encountered the watchmen on their rounds of the city: “Have you seen the one I love?”

4 I had just passed them when I found the one I love. I held him and would not let go until I had brought him to my mother’s house, to the chamber of the one who conceived me.
