English Standard Version

On my bed by night I sought him whom my soul loves; I sought him, but found him not.

Song of Solomon 3:1

The Lord is your keeper; the Lord is your shade on your right hand. The sun shall not strike you by day, nor the moon by night.

Psalm 121:5-6

Song of Solomon 3 (English Standard Version)

1 On my bed by night
I sought him whom my soul loves;
I sought him, but found him not.
2 I 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?”
4 Scarcely 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.

The Lord keeps watch over you; the Lord protects you; he stands right beside you. The sun won't hurt you during the day, nor the moon at night.

Psalm 121:5-6

Song of Solomon 3 (Free Bible Version)

1 One night when I was lying in bed, I longed for the one I love. I longed for him, but he was nowhere to be found.
2 So I said to myself, “I will get up now and go through the city, looking in its streets and squares for the one I love.” I looked for him but I didn't find him.
3 The watchmen found me as they went through the city. “Have you seen the one I love?” I asked them.
4 Only a little farther on after I'd passed them I found my love! I held him close and would not let him go until I'd brought him to my mother's house, to the room of the one who conceived me.
