Song of Solomon 8
1 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.
萬望你的兄弟，吮過我母親的乳房，好叫我 外邊遇見你時，能親吻你，而不致受人輕視。
2 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.
我要引領你走進我母親的家，進入懷我者的內室；給你喝調香的美酒，石榴的甘釀
3 His left hand would be under my head, And his right hand embrace me.
他的左手在我頭下，他的右手緊抱著我。◆新郎：
4 I charge you, daughters of Jerusalem, ...Why should ye stir up, why awake [my] love, till he please?
耶路撒冷女郎! 我懇求妳們，不要驚醒，也不要喚我的愛，讓她自便吧![第六幕：愛情的圓滿]◆耶京女郎：
5 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.
從曠野裏上來，那依偎著自己的愛人的，是誰﹖◆新郎：在蘋果樹下我喚醒了妳，在那裏妳的母親懷孕了妳，在那裏生養妳的，為妳受了產痛。◆新娘：
6 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)
請將我有如印璽，放在你的心上，有如印璽，放在你肩上，因為愛情猛如死亡，妒愛頑如陰府：它的火焰，是上主的火焰。◆新郎： (Sheol h7585)
7 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.
洪流不能熄滅愛情，江河不能將它沖去，如有人獻出全副家產想購買愛情，必受人輕視。◆新娘兄弟：
8 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? —
我的妹妹尚小，還沒有乳房；到了她議婚之日，為我們的妹妹，我們將作什麼﹖
9 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.
她若是牆，我們就在上面建造銀堵，她若是門，我們就用香柏木閂來關鎖。◆新娘：
10 I am a wall, and my breasts like towers; Then was I in his eyes as one that findeth peace.
我是一道牆，我的乳房如同塔。我在他眼裏，實如獲得和平的女郎。◆新娘兄弟：
11 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.
撒羅滿在巴耳哈孟有個葡萄園，他將這葡萄園委托給看守的人；每人為園中的果子，應交一千兩銀子。◆新郎：
12 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.
那屬我的葡萄園，就在我面前；撒羅滿! 一千兩銀子歸你，二百兩歸看守果子的人。◆新郎：
13 Thou that dwellest in the gardens, The companions hearken to thy voice: Let me hear [it].
妳這住在果園中的女郎，願妳使我聽到妳的聲音! 同伴們都在等候細聽。◆新娘：
14 Haste, my beloved, And be thou like a gazelle or a young hart Upon the mountains of spices.
我的愛人! 願你仿效郁香山上的羚羊或幼鹿，趕快跑來!
