“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.”
Song of Solomon 3:2 (BSB)
Context Reading
1On my bed at night I sought the one I love; I sought him, but did not find him. 2I 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. 3I encountered the watchmen on their rounds of the city: “Have you seen the one I love?” 4I 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.
