Song of Solomon 3
1 On my bed, in the nights, I sought him whom my soul loveth: I sought him, but I found him not.
Ka hinglu kah a lungnah te khoyin ah ka thingkong dongah ka tlap. Anih te ka tlap dae amah ka hmuh moenih.
2 I will rise now, and go about the city; In the streets and in the broadways Will I seek him whom my soul loveth: I sought him, but I found him not.
Ka thoo laeh vetih kho khopuei khui neh imdak ah khaw, toltung ah khaw ka hil mako. Ka hinglu loh a lungnah te ka tlap laeh mako. Anih te ka tlap dae amah ka hmuh moenih.
3 The watchmen that go about the city found me: — Have ye seen him whom my soul loveth?
Khopuei te a hil tih aka tawt rhoek loh kai m'hmuh uh. Ka hinglu kah a lungnah te na hmuh uh nim?
4 — Scarcely had I passed from them, When I found him whom my soul loveth: I held him, and would not let him go, Until I had brought him into my mother's house, And into the chamber of her that conceived me.
Amih lamloh vel ka poeng vaengah ka hinglu kah a lungnah te ka hmuh. Amah te ka tuuk tih a nu im hil neh kai n'yom nah imkhui hil amah ka khuen duela anih te ka hlah pawh.
5 I charge you, daughters of Jerusalem, By the gazelles, or by the hinds of the field, That ye stir not up, nor awake [my] love, till he please.
Jerusalem nu rhoek nang te kan caeng coeng. Kohong kah sakhi rhuinu long khaw sayuk long khaw n'haeng boel saeh. Lungnah loh a ngaih duela haenghang boeh.
6 Who is this, [she] that cometh up from the wilderness Like pillars of smoke, Perfumed with myrrh and frankincense, With all powders of the merchant? ...
Myrrah a phum neh thimpom vaidik boeih lamkah hmueihtui tah hmaikhu tung bangla khosoek lamloh aka cet he unim?
7 Behold his couch, Solomon's own: Threescore mighty men are about it, Of the mighty of Israel.
Solomon taengkah a baiphaih aih ke. A kaepvai kah hlangrhalh sawmrhuk rhoek khaw Israel hlangrhalh khui lamkah ni.
8 They all hold the sword, Experts in war; Each hath his sword upon his thigh Because of alarm in the nights.
Amih boeih tah cunghang a muk uh tih caemtloek neh phaep uh. Hlang loh khoyin kah birhihnah dongah a phai ah a cunghang a vah.
9 King Solomon made himself a palanquin Of the wood of Lebanon.
Manghai Solomon loh Lebanon thing te amah kah pa la a sak.
10 Its pillars he made of silver, Its support of gold, Its seat of purple; The midst thereof was paved [with] love By the daughters of Jerusalem.
A tung te cak neh, a imci te sui neh, a ngoldoelh te daidi neh a saii. A khui tah Jerusalem nu kah lungnah neh a ben.
11 Go forth, daughters of Zion, And behold king Solomon With the crown wherewith his mother crowned him In the day of his espousals, And in the day of the gladness of his heart.
Cet lamtah manghai Solomon taengkah Zion nu rhoek ke hmu uh lah. A lueinah hnin neh a lungbuei kohoenah hnin ah anih te a manu loh rhuisam neh a khuem.
