雅歌 6

1 ◆耶京女郎： 妳這女中極美麗的啊! 妳的愛人往那裏去了﹖妳的愛人轉向何處去了﹖妳讓我們同妳一起去尋找﹖◆新娘：

To where has your beloved gone, O beautiful among women? To where has your beloved turned, And we seek him with you?

2 我的愛人到自己的花園，到香畦去了，好在花園中牧羊，採百合花。

My beloved went down to his garden, To the beds of the spice, To delight himself in the gardens, and to gather lilies.

3 我屬於我的愛人，我的愛人屬於我，他在百合花間，牧放他的羊群。◆新郎：

I [am] my beloved’s, and my beloved [is] mine, Who is delighting himself among the lilies.

4 我的愛卿! 妳美麗有如提爾匝，可愛有如耶路撒冷，莊嚴有如整齊的軍旅。

You [are] beautiful, my friend, as Tirzah, lovely as Jerusalem, Awe-inspiring as bannered hosts.

5 轉過妳的眼去，不要看我，因為妳的眼使我迷亂；妳的頭髮猶如由基肋阿得山下來的一群山羊。

Turn around your eyes from before me, Because they have made me proud. Your hair [is] as a row of the goats, That have shone from Gilead,

6 妳的牙齒像一群浴後上來的母綿羊，都懷有雙胎，沒有不生育的。

Your teeth as a row of the lambs, That have come up from the washing, Because all of them are forming twins, And a bereaved one is not among them.

7 妳隱在面紗後的兩頰，有如分裂兩半的石榴。

As the work of the pomegranate [is] your temple behind your veil.

8 皇后六十，嬪妃八十，少女無數：

Sixty are queens, and eighty concubines, And virgins without number.

9 但是，我的鴿子，我的完人，只有一個，她是生養她者的愛女；少女見了她，都稱她有福；皇后與嬪妃，也都讚揚她。◆耶京女郎：

One is my dove, my perfect one, She [is] one of her mother, She [is] the choice one of her that bore her, Daughters saw, and pronounce her blessed, Queens and concubines, and they praise her.

10 「那上升如晨曦，美麗如月亮，光耀如太陽，莊嚴如整齊軍旅的，是誰﹖」[第五幕：愛情的享受]◆新娘：

“Who [is] this that is looking forth as morning, Beautiful as the moon—clear as the sun, Awe-inspiring as bannered hosts?”

11 我下到核桃園中，要欣賞谷中的新綠，看看葡萄樹是否發了芽，石榴樹是否開了花﹖

To a garden of nuts I went down, To look on the buds of the valley, To see to where the vine had flourished, The pomegranates had blossomed—

12 我的熱誠摧促我登上了我民主上的御駕。

I did not know my soul, It made me—chariots of my people Nadib.

13 耶京女郎：1. 歸來，歸來! 叔拉米特! 歸來，歸來! 讓我看看妳! 妳們要看叔拉米特什麼﹖看她在兩隊中舞蹈。◆甲：

Return, return, O Shulammith! Return, return, and we look on you. What do you see in Shulammith?
