כִּמְעַ֣ט׀ שֶׁעָבַ֣רְתִּי מֵהֶ֗ם עַ֤ד שֶׁמָּצָ֙אתִי֙ אֵ֚ת שֶׁאָהֲבָ֣ה נַפְשִׁ֔י אֲחַזְתִּ֖יו וְלֹ֣א אַרְפֶּ֑נּוּ עַד־שֶׁהֲבֵיאתִ֗יו אֶל־בֵּ֤ית אִמִּי֙ וְאֶל־חֶ֣דֶר הוֹרָתִ֔י׃
kimʿaṭ sheʿabartiy mehem ʿad shemaṣaʾtiy ʾet sheʾahabah napshiy ʾaḥaztiyv vloʾ ʾarpenv ʿad-shehabeyʾtiyv ʾel-beyt ʾimiy vʾel-ḥeder hvoratiy
King James Version (KJV)

It was but a little that I passed from them, but I found him whom my soul loveth: 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 that conceived me.

Modern English

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.
