Song of Solomon 3:3-5

21st Century King James Version

³ The watchmen that go about the city found me, to whom I said, ‘Saw ye him whom my soul loveth?’

⁴ It 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 mother’s house, and into the chamber of her that conceived me.

⁵ I 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.”
