10  Oh, continue your steadfast love to those who ^qknow you,

and your righteousness to ^rthe upright of heart!

4  Scarcely had I passed them

when I found ^shim whom my soul loves.

I ^wheld him, and would not let him go

until I had ^xbrought him into my mother’s house,

and into the chamber of ^yher who conceived me.

1  On my bed ^rby night

I sought ^shim whom my soul loves;

^tI sought him, but found him not.
