16 I have woven my bed with cords. I have strewn it with embroidered tapestries from Egypt.
17 I have sprinkled my bed with myrrh, aloe, and cinnamon.
18 Come, let us be inebriated in abundance, and let us delight in the embraces of desire, until the day begins to dawn.
19 For my husband is not in his house. He has gone away on a very long journey.
20 He took with him a bag of money. He will return to his house on the day of the full moon.'
