Song of Solomon 3:1-4
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 3
1'On my bed night after night I sought him Whom my soul loves; I sought him but did not find him. 2‘ I must arise now and go around in the city; In the streets and in the public squares I must seek him whom my soul loves.’ I sought him but did not find him. 3The watchmen who make the rounds in the city found me, And I said, ‘Have you seen him whom my soul loves?’ 4Hardly had I left them When I found him whom my soul loves; I held on to him and would not let him go Until I had brought him to my mother’s house, And into the room of her who conceived me.'King James Version
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 3
1In 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 the plazas. I will seek the one I love. I sought him, but did not find him. 3The guards who go about the city found me. I asked them, "Have you seen the one I love?" 4I had just passed them when I found the one I love. I held on to him and would not let him go until I brought him to my mother’s house — to the chamber of the one who conceived me.New Living Translation
Chapter 3
1One night as I lay in bed, I yearned for my lover. I yearned for him, but he did not come. 2So I said to myself, 'I will get up and roam the city, searching in all its streets and squares. I will search for the one I love.' So I searched everywhere but did not find him. 3The watchmen stopped me as they made their rounds, and I asked, 'Have you seen the one I love?' 4Then scarcely had I left them when I found my love! I caught and held him tightly, then I brought him to my mother’s house, into my mother’s bed, where I had been conceived.English Standard Version

1On 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 squares; I will seek him whom my soul loves. I sought him, but found him not. 3 The 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 who conceived me.New International Version

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.New King James Version
