雅歌 8
1 巴不得你像我的兄弟， 像吃我母親奶的兄弟； 我在外頭遇見你就與你親嘴， 誰也不輕看我。
Oh that thou wert as my brother, That sucked the breasts of my mother! Should I find thee without, I would kiss thee; And they would not despise me.
2 我必引導你， 領你進我母親的家； 我可以領受教訓， 也就使你喝石榴汁釀的香酒。
I would lead thee, bring thee into my mother's house; Thou wouldest instruct me: I would cause thee to drink of spiced wine, Of the juice of my pomegranate.
3 他的左手必在我頭下； 他的右手必將我抱住。
His left hand would be under my head, And his right hand embrace me.
4 耶路撒冷的眾女子啊， 我囑咐你們： 不要驚動、不要叫醒我所親愛的， 等他自己情願。
I charge you, daughters of Jerusalem, ...Why should ye stir up, why awake [my] love, till he please?
5 那靠着良人從曠野上來的是誰呢？ 〔新娘〕 我在蘋果樹下叫醒你。 你母親在那裏為你劬勞； 生養你的在那裏為你劬勞。
Who is this that cometh up from the wilderness, Leaning upon her beloved? I awoke thee under the apple-tree: There thy mother brought thee forth; There she brought thee forth [that] bore thee.
Set me as a seal upon thy heart, As a seal upon thine arm: For love is strong as death; Jealousy is cruel as Sheol: The flashes thereof are flashes of fire, Flames of Jah. (Sheol h7585)
7 愛情，眾水不能熄滅， 大水也不能淹沒。 若有人拿家中所有的財寶要換愛情， 就全被藐視。
Many waters cannot quench love, Neither do the floods drown it: Even if a man gave all the substance of his house for love, It would utterly be contemned.
8 我們有一小妹； 她的兩乳尚未長成， 人來提親的日子， 我們當為她怎樣辦理？
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 她若是牆， 我們要在其上建造銀塔； 她若是門， 我們要用香柏木板圍護她。
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 我是牆； 我兩乳像其上的樓。 那時，我在他眼中像得平安的人。
I am a wall, and my breasts like towers; Then was I in his eyes as one that findeth peace.
11 所羅門在巴力‧哈們有一葡萄園； 他將這葡萄園交給看守的人， 為其中的果子必交一千舍客勒銀子。
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 silver-pieces.
12 我自己的葡萄園在我面前。 所羅門哪，一千舍客勒歸你， 二百舍客勒歸看守果子的人。
My vineyard, which is mine, is before me: The thousand [silver-pieces] be to thee, Solomon; And to the keepers of its fruit, two hundred.
13 你這住在園中的， 同伴都要聽你的聲音， 求你使我也得聽見。
Thou that dwellest in the gardens, The companions hearken to thy voice: Let me hear [it].
14 我的良人哪，求你快來！ 如羚羊或小鹿在香草山上。
Haste, my beloved, And be thou like a gazelle or a young hart Upon the mountains of spices.
