31 Song of Solomon 3:1-11 ¹By night on my bed I sought him whom my soul loveth: I sought him, but I found him not. ²I will rise now, and go about the city in the streets, and in the broad ways I will seek him whom my soul loveth: I sought him, but I found him not. ³The watchmen that go about the city found me: to whom I said, Saw ye him whom my soul loveth? ⁴It was but a little that I passed from them, but I found him whom my soul loveth: I held him, and would not let him go, until I had brought him into my mothers house, and into the chamber of her that conceived me. ⁵I charge you, O ye daughters of Jerusalem, by the roes, and by the hinds of the field, that ye stir not up, nor awake my love, till he please.

⁶Who is this that cometh out of the wilderness like pillars of smoke, perfumed with myrrh and frankincense, with all powders of the merchant? ⁷Behold his bed, which is Solomons; threescore valiant men are about it, of the valiant of Israel. ⁸They all hold swords, being expert in war: every man hath his sword upon his thigh because of fear in the night. ⁹King Solomon made himself a chariot of the wood of Lebanon. ¹⁰He made the pillars thereof of silver, the bottom thereof of gold, the covering of it of purple, the midst thereof being paved with love, for the daughters of Jerusalem. ¹¹Go forth, O ye daughters of Zion, and behold king Solomon with the crown wherewith his mother crowned him in the day of his espousals, and in the day of the gladness of his heart.(KJV)

⁶Who is this that cometh out of the wilderness like pillars of smoke, perfumed with myrrh and frankincense, with all powders of the merchant? ⁷Behold his bed, which is Solomon's; 60 valiant men are about it, of the valiant of Israel. ⁸They all hold swords, being expert in war: every man hath his sword upon his thigh because of fear in the night. ⁹King Solomon made himself a chariot of the wood of Lebanon. ¹⁰He made the pillars thereof of silver, the bottom thereof of gold, the covering of it of purple, the midst thereof being paved with love, for the daughters of Jerusalem. ¹¹Go forth, O ye daughters of Zion, and behold king Solomon with the crown wherewith his mother crowned him in the day of his espousals, and in the day of the gladness of his heart.(KJV/NC)

31 Song of Solomon 3:1-11 ¹By night on my bed

I sought him whom my soul loveth:

I sought him, but I found him not.

²I said, I will rise now, and go about the city;

In the streets and in the broad ways

I will seek him whom my soul loveth:

I sought him, but I found him not.

³The watchmen that go about the city found me;

To whom I said, Saw ye him whom my soul loveth?

⁴It was but a little that I passed from them,

When I found him whom my soul loveth:

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.

⁵I adjure you, O daughters of Jerusalem,

By the roes, or by the hinds of the field,

That ye stir not up, nor awake my love,

Until he please.

⁶Who is this that cometh up from the wilderness

Like pillars of smoke,

Perfumed with myrrh and frankincense,

With all powders of the merchant?

⁷Behold, it is the litter of Solomon;

Threescore mighty men are about it,

Of the mighty men of Israel.

⁸They all handle the sword, and are expert in war:

Every man hath his sword upon his thigh,

Because of fear in the night.

⁹King Solomon made himself a palanquin

Of the wood of Lebanon.

¹⁰He made the pillars thereof of silver,

The bottom thereof of gold, the seat of it of purple,

The midst thereof being paved with love,

From the daughters of Jerusalem.

¹¹Go forth, O ye daughters of Zion, and behold king Solomon,(ASV)

31 Song of Solomon 3:1-11 ¹UPON my bed by night I sought him whom my soul loves; I sought him but found him not. ²I will rise now and go about the city in the streets, and in the broad ways I will seek him whom my soul loves; I sought him but I found him not. ³The watchmen that go about the city found me; I asked them, Have you seen him whom my soul loves? ⁴Scarcely had I passed by them, 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 bore me. ⁵I charge you, O daughters of Jerusalem, by the gazelles or by the young roes of the field, that you stir not up nor awake my love till it please.

⁶¶ Who is this that comes up from the wilderness like pillars of smoke, perfumed with myrrh and frankincense, compounded from all kinds of powdered sweet spices?

⁷¶ Behold, the litter of Solomon is surrounded by sixty mighty men of the valiant of Israel. ⁸They all hold swords, being expert in war; every man has his sword upon his thigh because of fear in the night. ⁹King Solomon made himself a palace of wood of Lebanon. ¹⁰He made its pillars of silver, the floor thereof of gold, the covering of it of purple, the inside thereof being paved with a love gift from the daughters of Jerusalem. ¹¹Go forth, O you daughters of Zion, and behold King Solomon with the crown with which his mother crowned him in the day of his wedding and in the day of the joy of his heart. (LAM)

31 Song of Solomon 3:1-11 ¹Upon my bed by night I sought him whom my soul loves; I sought him, but found him not; I called him, but he gave no answer. 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. ³The watchmen found me, as they went about in the city. "Have you seen him whom my soul loves?" ⁴Scarcely had I passed them, 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. ⁵I adjure you, O daughters of Jerusalem, by the gazelles or the hinds of the field, that you stir not up nor awaken love until it please. ⁶What is that coming up from the wilderness, like a column of smoke, perfumed with myrrh and frankincense, with all the fragrant powders of the merchant? ⁷Behold, it is the litter of Solomon! About it are sixty mighty men of the mighty men of Israel, ⁸all girt with swords and expert in war, each with his sword at his thigh, against alarms by night. ⁹King Solomon made himself a palanquin from the wood of Lebanon. ¹⁰He made its posts of silver, its back of gold, its seat of purple; it was lovingly wrought within by the daughters of Jerusalem. ¹¹Go forth, O daughters of Zion, and behold King Solomon, with the crown with which his mother crowned him on the day of his wedding, on the day of the gladness of his heart. (RSV)

31 Song of Solomon 3:1-11 ¹All night long on my bed I looked for the one my heart loves; I looked for him but did not find him. ²I 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. ³The watchmen found me as they made their rounds in the city. "Have you seen the one my heart loves?" ⁴Scarcely had I passed them when I found the one my heart loves. I held him and would not let him go till I had brought him to my mother's house, to the room of the one who conceived me. ⁵Daughters of Jerusalem, I charge you by the gazelles and by the does of the field: Do not arouse or awaken love until it so desires. ⁶Who is this coming up from the desert like a column of smoke, perfumed with myrrh and incense made from all the spices of the merchant? ⁷Look! It is Solomon's carriage, escorted by sixty warriors, the noblest of Israel, ⁸all of them wearing the sword, all experienced in battle, each with his sword at his side, prepared for the terrors of the night. ⁹King Solomon made for himself the carriage; he made it of wood from Lebanon. ¹⁰Its posts he made of silver, its base of gold. Its seat was upholstered with purple, its interior lovingly inlaid by the daughters of Jerusalem. ¹¹Come out, you daughters of Zion, and look at King Solomon wearing the crown, the crown with which his mother crowned him on the day of his wedding, the day his heart rejoiced.(NIV)

31 Song of Solomon 3:1-11 ¹By night on my bed,
I sought him whom my soul loves.
I sought him, but I didn't find him.

²I will get up 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 I didn't find him.

³The watchmen who go about the city found me;
'Have you_P seen him whom my soul loves?'

⁴I had scarcely passed from them,
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,
Into the chamber of her who conceived me.

⁵I adjure you, daughters of Jerusalem,
By the roes, or by the hinds of the field,
That you_P not stir up, nor awaken love,
Until it so desires.

⁶Who is this who comes up from the wilderness like pillars of smoke,
Perfumed with myrrh and frankincense,
With all spices of the merchant?

⁷Behold, it is Solomon's carriage!
Sixty mighty men are around it,
Of the mighty men of Israel.

⁸They all handle the sword, and are expert in war.
Every man has his sword on his thigh,
Because of fear in the night.

⁹King Solomon made himself a carriage
Of the wood of Lebanon.

¹⁰He made its pillars of silver,
Its bottom of gold, its seat of purple,
Its midst being paved with love,
From the daughters of Jerusalem.

¹¹Go forth, you_P daughters of Zion, and see king Solomon,
With the crown with which his mother has crowned him,
In the day of his weddings,
In the day of the gladness of his heart.(WEB)
