14 Je devais un sacrifice d’actions de grâces, Aujourd’hui j’ai accompli mes vœux.
15 C’est pourquoi je suis sortie au-devant de toi Pour te chercher, et je t’ai trouvé.
16 J’ai orné mon lit de couvertures, De tapis de fil d’Égypte;
17 J’ai parfumé ma couche De myrrhe, d’aloès et de cinnamome.
18 Viens, enivrons-nous d’amour jusqu’au matin, Livrons-nous joyeusement à la volupté.
