- Song of Solomon 3:1-41 By night on my bed I sought him whom my soul loveth: I sought him, but I found him not. 2 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. 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.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.
