Solomon La 8
1 Nang koe kaie manu e sanutui karadip e, ka net e, ka thangroi patetlah o sak han ka ngai. Kai ni nang teh, alawilah kâhmo vaiteh, na paco nakunghai ayânaw ni kai teh na pathoe mahoeh.
I would that thou, O my kinsman, wert he that sucked the breasts of my mother; when I found thee without, I would kiss thee; yea, they should not despise me.
2 Anu e irakhan na kut dawk hoi na hrawi vaiteh na ceikhai han. Ahni ni hai kai hai na cangkhai han. Kai ni tâsi hoi kalawt e misurtui hoi taletui hah na nei sak han.
I would take thee, I would bring thee into my mother's house, and into the chamber of her that conceived me; I would make thee to drink of spiced wine, of the juice of my pomegranates.
3 Ahnie avoilah, e kut kaie ka lû rahim a hruek vaiteh, aranglae kut hoi na takawi seh.
His left hand [should be] under my head, and his right hand should embrace me.
4 Oe Jerusalem canunaw, ka pahren e teh amahmawk a kâhlaw hoehroukrak na pâhlaw awh hoeh nahanelah, kahrawng e sayuk sakhinaw noe lahoi lawk na thui awh.
I have charged you, ye daughters of Jerusalem, by the virtues of the field, that ye stir not up, nor awake [my] love, until he please.
5 A pahren dawk kamngawi laihoi kahrawngum hoi ka tho e hateh api han namaw. Epal thingkung rahim nang teh na pâhlaw toe. Hote hmuen koe nange na manu ni nang teh na hâ toe. Hote hmuen koe nang na khe teh, hâ e lah na hruek toe.
Who is this that comes up all white, leaning on her kinsman? I raised thee up under an apple-tree; there thy mother brought thee forth; there she that bore thee brought thee forth.
6 Kai teh nange na lung dawkvah tacik na kin leih lah. Na kut dawk hai tacik na kin leih. Bangkongtetpawiteh, lungpatawnae teh, due e patetlah a thao. Dipmanae lungthin teh phuen kho patetlah a ru. Ahnie a hue teh, hmaisaan hoi hmaito patetlah ao. (Sheol h7585)
Set me as a seal upon thy heart, as a seal upon thine arm; for love is strong as death; jealousy is cruel as the grave, her shafts are shafts of fire, [even] the flames thereof. (Sheol h7585)
7 Hatnavah, tuinaw ni lungpatawnae roum sak thai hoeh. Tuikalen ni hai pâyawt thai hoeh. Tami ni ama im kaawm hnopai pueng lungpatawnae lahoi poe han a ngai nakunghai puenghoi dudamnae doeh kâhmo ti.
Much water will not be able to quench love, and rivers shall not drown it; if a man would give all his substance for love, [men] would utterly despise it.
8 Kaimouh koevah kanaw rae ka tawncanu buet touh ao rah. Ahni teh sanu co hoeh rah. Hote ka tawncanu a pacei awh navah, ahni hanelah bangtelamaw ka ti awh han.
Our sister is little, and has no breasts; what shall we do for our sister, in the day wherein she shall be spoken for?
9 Ahni teh rapan lah awm pawiteh, ahni van ngunrapan ka sak han. Takhang lah awm pawiteh Sidar thing hoi ka kalup han.
If she is a wall, let us build upon her silver bulwarks; and if she is a door, let us carve for her cedar panels.
10 Kai teh kho rapan lah ka o. Kaie sanu hai imrasang patetlah o. Hatdawkvah, kai teh nang na hmalah hawinae ka sak.
I am a wall, and my breasts are as towers; I was in their eyes as one that found peace.
11 Baalhamon ram dawk takha buet touh ao. Hote misur takha teh, karingkungnaw koe ka hlai sak teh a paw a ca phu lah shekel thawng touh rip a sin awh.
Solomon had a vineyard in Beelamon; he let his vineyard to keepers; every one was to bring for its fruit a thousand [pieces] of silver.
12 Ka tawn e misur takha teh kahma lah ao. Oe Solomon, ngun shekel thong touh nama hanelah ao teh, karingkungnaw ni cumhni touh rip a la awh.
My vineyard, even mine, is before me; Solomon [shall have] a thousand, and they that keep its fruit two hundred.
13 Takha thung kaawm e, nange tami na huikonaw ni nange na lawk teh a ngai awh. Kai hai na thaisak van awh haw.
Thou that dwellest in the gardens, the companions hearken to thy voice: make me hear [it].
14 Ka pahren nang kai koe karanglah tho leih. Hmuitui monnaw dawk kaawm e sayuk sakhicanaw patetlah na awm sak haw.
Away, my kinsman, and be like a doe or a fawn on the mountains of spices.
