< 雅歌 8 >

1 巴不得你像我的兄弟, 像吃我母亲奶的兄弟; 我在外头遇见你就与你亲嘴, 谁也不轻看我。
Oh that thou wert as my brother, that sucked the breasts of my mother! [when] I should find thee without, I would kiss thee; yea, and none would despise me.
2 我必引导你, 领你进我母亲的家; 我可以领受教训, 也就使你喝石榴汁酿的香酒。
I would lead thee, [and] bring thee into my mother’s house, who would instruct me; I would cause thee to drink of spiced wine, of the juice of my pomegranate.
3 他的左手必在我头下; 他的右手必将我抱住。
His left hand [should be] under my head, and his right hand should embrace me.
4 耶路撒冷的众女子啊, 我嘱咐你们: 不要惊动、不要叫醒我所亲爱的, 等他自己情愿。
I adjure you, O daughters of Jerusalem, that ye stir not up, nor awaken love, until it please.
5 那靠着良人从旷野上来的是谁呢? 〔新娘〕 我在苹果树下叫醒你。 你母亲在那里为你劬劳; 生养你的在那里为你劬劳。
Who is this that cometh up from the wilderness, leaning upon her beloved? Under the apple tree I awakened thee: there thy mother was in travail with thee, there was she in travail that brought thee forth.
6 求你将我放在你心上如印记, 带在你臂上如戳记。 因为爱情如死之坚强, 嫉恨如阴间之残忍; 所发的电光是火焰的电光, 是耶和华的烈焰。 (Sheol h7585)
Set me as a seal upon thine heart, as a seal upon thine arm: for love is strong as death; jealousy is cruel as the grave: the flashes thereof are flashes of fire, a very flame of the LORD. (Sheol h7585)
7 爱情,众水不能息灭, 大水也不能淹没。 若有人拿家中所有的财宝要换爱情, 就全被藐视。
Many waters cannot quench love, neither can the floods drown it: if a man would give all the substance of his house for love, he would utterly be contemned.
8 我们有一小妹; 她的两乳尚未长成, 人来提亲的日子, 我们当为她怎样办理?
We have a little sister, and she hath no breasts: what shall we do for our sister in the day when she shall be spoken for?
9 她若是墙, 我们要在其上建造银塔; 她若是门, 我们要用香柏木板围护她。
If she be a wall, we will build upon her a turret of silver: and if she be a door, we will enclose her with boards of cedar.
10 我是墙; 我两乳像其上的楼。 那时,我在他眼中像得平安的人。
I am a wall, and my breasts like the towers [thereof]: then was I in his eyes as one that found peace.
11 所罗门在巴力·哈们有一葡萄园; 他将这葡萄园交给看守的人, 为其中的果子必交一千舍客勒银子。
Solomon had a vineyard at Baal-hamon; he let out the vineyard unto keepers; every one for the fruit thereof was to bring a thousand [pieces] of silver.
12 我自己的葡萄园在我面前。 所罗门哪,一千舍客勒归你, 二百舍客勒归看守果子的人。
My vineyard, which is mine, is before me: thou, O Solomon, shalt have the thousand, and those that keep the fruit thereof two hundred.
13 你这住在园中的, 同伴都要听你的声音, 求你使我也得听见。
Thou that dwellest in the gardens, the companions hearken for thy voice: cause me to hear it.
14 我的良人哪,求你快来! 如羚羊或小鹿在香草山上。
Make haste, my beloved, and be thou like to a roe or to a young hart upon the mountains of spices.
