פָּתַ֤חְתִּי אֲנִי֙ לְדוֹדִ֔י וְדוֹדִ֖י חָמַ֣ק עָבָ֑ר נַפְשִׁ֤י יָֽצְאָה֙ בְדַבְּר֔וֹ בִּקַּשְׁתִּ֙יהוּ֙ וְלֹ֣א מְצָאתִ֔יהוּ קְרָ֣אתִיו וְלֹ֥א עָנָ֖נִי׃
pataḥtiy ʾaniy ldvodiy vdvodiy ḥamaq ʿabar napshiy yaṣʾah bdabrvo biqashtiyhv vloʾ mṣaʾtiyhv qraʾtiyv vloʾ ʿananiy
King James Version (KJV)

I opened to my beloved; but my beloved had withdrawn himself, and was gone: my soul failed when he spake: I sought him, but I could not find him; I called him, but he gave me no answer.

Modern English

I opened to my beloved; but my beloved had withdrawn himself, and was gone. My heart went out when he spoke. I sought him, but I couldn't find him. I called him, but he didn't answer.
