Song of Solomon 3
1 In my bed by night I sought him that my soule loued: I sought him, but I found him not.
Usiku wonse ndili pa bedi langa ndinafunafuna amene mtima wanga umamukonda; ndinamufunafuna koma osamupeza.
2 I will rise therefore nowe, and goe about in the citie, by the streetes and by the open places, and wil seeke him that my soule loueth: I sought him, but I found him not.
Ndikudzuka tsopano ndipo ndidzayendayenda mu mzinda, mʼmisewu yake ndi mʼmabwalo ake; ndidzamufunafuna amene mtima wanga umamukonda. Kotero ine ndinamufunafuna iyeyo koma osamupeza.
3 The watchmen that went about the citie, found mee: to whome I said, Haue you seene him, whome my soule loueth?
Alonda anandipeza pamene ankayendera mzinda. “Kodi mwamuonako amene mtima wanga umamukonda?”
4 When I had past a litle from them, then I found him whom my soule loued: I tooke holde on him and left him not, till I had brought him vnto my mothers house into the chamber of her that conceiued me.
Nditawapitirira pangʼono ndinamupeza amene mtima wanga umamukonda. Ndinamugwira ndipo sindinamulole kuti achoke mpaka nditamulowetsa mʼnyumba ya amayi anga, mʼchipinda cha amene anandibereka.
5 I charge you, O daughters of Ierusalem, by the roes and by the hindes of the fielde, that ye stirre not vp, nor waken my loue vntill she please.
Inu akazi a ku Yerusalemu, ndithu ndikukupemphani pali gwape ndi mbawala yayikazi zakuthengo: Musachigwedeze chikondi kapena kuchiutsa mpaka pamene chifunire ichocho.
6 Who is shee that commeth vp out of the wildernes like pillars of smoke perfumed with myrrhe and incense, and with all the spices of the marchant?
Kodi ndani amene akubwera kuchokera ku chipululu ngati utsi watolotolo, wonunkhira mure ndi lubani, zopangidwa kuchokera ku zonunkhira zonse za anthu amalonda?
7 Beholde his bed, which is Salomons: threescore strong men are round about it, of the valiant men of Israel.
Ona! Chimenecho ndi chonyamulira Solomoni, choperekezedwa ndi asilikali 60, anthu amphamvu a ku Israeli,
8 They all handle the sworde, and are expert in warre, euery one hath his sword vpon his thigh for the feare by night.
onse atanyamula lupanga, onse odziwa bwino nkhondo, aliyense ali ndi lupanga pambali pake, kukonzekera zoopsa za usiku.
9 King Salomon made himselfe a palace of the trees of Lebanon.
Mfumu Solomoni anadzipangira chonyamulirachi; anachipanga ndi matabwa ochokera ku Lebanoni.
10 Hee made the pillars thereof of siluer, and the pauement thereof of gold, the hangings thereof of purple, whose middes was paued with the loue of the daughters of Ierusalem.
Milongoti yake anayipanga yasiliva, kumbuyo kwake kwa golide. Mipando yake inakutidwa ndi nsalu yapepo, anakongoletsa mʼkati mwake ndi chikondi cha akazi a ku Yerusalemu.
11 Come forth, ye daughters of Zion, and behold the King Salomon with the crowne, wherewith his mother crowned him in ye day of his mariage, and in the day of the gladnes of his heart.
Tukulani inu akazi a ku Ziyoni ndipo mudzaone mfumu Solomoni atavala chipewa chaufumu, chipewa chaufumu chimene amayi ake anamuveka pa tsiku la ukwati wake, tsiku limene mtima wake unasangalala.
