Seeking by night him whom my soul loves

밤에 침상에서 마음에 사랑하는 자를 찾는 노래

Song of Solomon 3:1–5: the speaker (“I”) says, “By night on my bed, I sought him whom my soul loves. I sought him, but I didn’t find him. I will get up 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 I didn’t find him. The watchmen who go about the city found me; ‘Have you seen him whom my soul loves?’ I had scarcely passed from 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, into the room of her who conceived me. I adjure you, daughters of Jerusalem, by the roes, or by the hinds of the field, that you not stir up nor awaken love, until it so desires.” At 3:3 the Korean Revised Version reads 성중의 행순하는 자들을 만나서 묻기를, with the watchmen met and asked, where WEB reads “The watchmen who go about the city found me”; and it ends 3:5 with 사랑하는 자가 원하기 전에는, with 사랑하는 자 as the subject of 원하기 (desires), where WEB reads “love, until it so desires”.
