< Song of Solomon 8 >

1 Oh that thou werest as my brother that sucked the brestes of my mother: I would finde thee without, I would kisse thee, then they should not despise thee.
(الْمَحْبُوبَةُ): لَيْتَكَ كُنْتَ أَخِي الَّذِي رَضَعَ ثَدْيَ أُمِّي، حَتَّى إِذَا الْتَقَيْتُكَ فِي الْخَارِجِ أُقَبِّلُكَ وَلَيْسَ مَنْ يَلُومُنِي!١
2 I will leade thee and bring thee into my mothers house: there thou shalt teache me: and I will cause thee to drinke spiced wine, and newe wine of the pomegranate.
ثُمَّ أَقُودُكَ وَأَدْخُلُ بِكَ بَيْتَ أُمِّي الَّتِي تُعَلِّمُنِي الْحُبَّ، فَأُقَدِّمُ لَكَ خَمْرَةً مَمْزُوجَةً مِنْ سُلافِ رُمَّانِي.٢
3 His left hand shalbe vnder mine head, and his right hand shall embrace me.
شِمَالُهُ تَحْتَ رَأْسِي، وَيَمِينُهُ تُعَانِقُنِي.٣
4 I charge you, O daughters of Ierusale, that you stir not vp, nor waken my loue, vntil she please.
أَسْتَحْلِفُكُنَّ يَا بَنَاتِ أُورُشَلِيمَ أَلّا تُوْقِظْنَ وَلا تُنَبِّهْنَ الْحَبِيبَ حَتَّى يَشَاءَ.٤
5 (Who is this that commeth vp out of the wildernesse, leaning vpon her welbeloued?) I raysed thee vp vnder an apple tree: there thy mother conceiued thee: there she coceiued that bare thee.
(بَنَاتُ أُورُشَلِيمَ): مَنْ هَذِهِ الصَّاعِدَةُ مِنَ الْقَفْرِ مُتَّكِئَةً عَلَى حَبِيبِهَا؟ (المُحِبُّ): تَحْتَ شَجَرَةِ التُّفَّاحِ حَيْثُ حَبِلَتْ بِكِ أُمُّكِ، وَحَيْثُ تَمَخَّضَتْ بِكِ وَأَنْجَبَتْكِ، أَيْقَظْتُ فِيكِ أَشْوَاقَكِ.٥
6 Set mee as a seale on thine heart, and as a signet vpon thine arme: for loue is strong as death: ielousie is cruel as the graue: the coles thereof are fierie coles, and a vehement flame. (Sheol h7585)
(الْمَحْبُوبَةُ): اجْعَلْنِي كَخَاتَمٍ عَلَى قَلْبِكَ، كَوَشْمٍ عَلَى ذِرَاعِكَ، فَإِنَّ الْمَحَبَّةَ قَوِيَّةٌ كَالْمَوْتِ، وَالْغَيْرَةَ قَاسِيَةٌ كَالْهَاوِيَةِ. وَلَهِيبَهَا لَهِيبُ نَارٍ، كَأَنَّهَا نَارُ الرَّبِّ! (Sheol h7585)٦
7 Much water can not quench loue, neither can the floods drowne it: If a man should giue all the substance of his house for loue, they would greatly contemne it.
لَا يُمْكِنُ لِلْمِيَاهِ الْغَزِيرَةِ أَنْ تُخْمِدَ الْمَحَبَّةَ، وَلا تَسْتَطِيعُ السُّيُولُ أَنْ تَغْمُرَهَا. لَوْ بَذَلَ الإِنْسَانُ كُلَّ ثَرْوَةِ بَيْتِهِ ثَمَناً لِلْمَحَبَّةِ لاحْتُقِرَتْ أَشَدَّ الاحْتِقَارِ.٧
8 Wee haue a litle sister, and she hath no breastes: what shall we do for our sister when she shalbe spoken for?
لَنَا أُخْتٌ صَغِيرَةٌ لَمْ يَنْمُ نَهْدَاهَا بَعْدُ، فَمَاذَا نَصْنَعُ لأُخْتِنَا فِي يَوْمِ خِطْبَتِهَا؟٨
9 If shee be a wall, we will builde vpon her a siluer palace: and if she be a doore, we wil keepe her in with bordes of cedar.
لَوْ كَانَتْ سُوراً لَبَنَيْنَا عَلَيْهِ صَرْحاً مِنْ فِضَّةٍ، وَلَوْ كَانَتْ بَاباً لَدَعَمْنَاهُ بِأَلْوَاحٍ مِنْ أَرْزٍ.٩
10 I am a wall, and my breasts are as towres: then was I in his eyes as one that findeth peace.
(الْمَحْبُوبَةُ): أَنَا كَسُورٍ وَنَهْدَايَ كَبُرْجَيْنِ، حِينَئِذٍ صِرْتُ فِي عَيْنَيْهِ كَامِلَةً.١٠
11 Salomon had a vine in Baal-hamon: hee gaue the vineyarde vnto keepers: euery one bringeth for ye fruite thereof a thousand pieces of siluer.
كَانَ لِسُلَيْمَانَ كَرْمٌ فِي بَعْلِ هَامُونَ، فَعَهِدَ بِالْكَرْمِ إِلَى النَّوَاطِيرِ عَلَى أَنْ يُؤَدِّيَ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْهُمْ أَلْفاً مِنَ الْفِضَّةِ لِقَاءَ الثَّمَرِ.١١
12 But my vineyarde which is mine, is before me: to thee, O Salomon appertaineth a thousand pieces of siluer, and two hundreth to them that keepe the fruite thereof.
لَكِنَّ كَرْمِي الَّذِي لِي هُوَ أَمَامِي. الأَلْفُ لَكَ يَا سُلَيْمَانُ، وَمِئَتَانِ مِنَ الْفِضَّةِ لِلنَّوَاطِيرِ.١٢
13 O thou that dwellest in the gardens, the companions hearken vnto thy voyce: cause me to heare it.
(المُحِبُّ): أَنْتِ أَيَّتُهَا الْجَالِسَةُ فِي الْجَنَّاتِ، إِنَّ مُرَافِقِيَّ يُصْغُونَ بِانْتِبَاهٍ إِلَى صَوْتِكِ، فَأَسْمِعِينِي إِيَّاهُ.١٣
14 O my welbeloued, flee away, and be like vnto the roe, or to the yong harte vpon ye mountaines of spices.
(الْمَحْبُوبَةُ): أَسْرِعْ إِلَيَّ كَالْهَارِبِ يَا حَبِيبِي، وَكُنْ كَالظَّبْيِ أَوِ الأُيَّلِ الْفَتِيِّ عَلَى جِبَالِ الأَطْيَابِ!١٤
