Song of Solomon 3:2


Song of Solomon 3:1 Song of Solomon 3:2 (KJV) Song of Solomon 3:3
By night on my bed I sought him whom my soul loveth: I sought him, but I found him not.
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.
The watchmen that go about the city found me: [to whom I said], Saw ye him whom my soul loveth?
