< Song of Solomon 3 >
1 BY night on my bed I sought him whom my soul loveth: I sought him, but I found him not.
Ka lungthung hoi ka pahren e hateh, karum vah ka inae koehoi ka tawng. Hateiteh ka hmawt hoeh.
2 I will rise now, and go about the city in the streets, and in the broad ways I will seek him whom my soul loveth: I sought him, but I found him not.
Atu ka thaw teh khothung ka lawngven teh lam tangkuem hoi tami a kamkhuengnae hmuennaw koe ka lungthinthung hoi ka pahren nang teh na tawng. Hateiteh na hmawt hoeh.
3 The watchmen that go about the city found me: to whom I said, Saw ye him whom my soul loveth?
Khoipui ka ring e ramvengnaw ni hai na hmu awh. Ahnimouh koe ka pahren hah na hmu awh maw telah ka pacei.
4 It was but a little that I passed from them, but 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.
Ahnimouh koung tapoung hoi a ro hoehnahlan, ka pahren e teh ka hmu. Ahni hah ka kuet teh, ka khenae, anu imthungkhu totouh ka hrawi.
5 I charge you, O ye daughters of Jerusalem, by the roes, and by the hinds of the field, that ye stir not up, nor awake my love, till he please.
Oe Jerusalem canunaw ka pahren teh amahmawk a kâhlaw hoeh roukrak na pâhlaw awh hoeh nahanelah, kahrawng e sayuk sakhinaw thoebo laihoi, nangmouh teh lawk na thui awh.
6 Who is this that cometh out of the wilderness like pillars of smoke, perfumed with myrrh and frankincense, with all powders of the merchant?
Murah hoi frankinsen koehoi hno kayawtnaw ni a yo e hmuituinaw pueng hah, hmaisawi toteh ka khu e hmaikhukhom patetlah kahrawngum hoi ka tâcawt e teh api nama.
7 Behold his bed, which is Solomon’s; threescore valiant men are about it, of the valiant of Israel.
Khenhaw! Solomon kâkayawtnae doeh. Isarel athakaawme taminaw, athakaawme 60 touh hoi a tho.
8 They all hold swords, being expert in war: every man hath his sword upon his thigh because of fear in the night.
Hotnaw abuemlah teh tarantuk hanelah tahloi ka patuem e tarankahawinaw doeh. Karum lae atueng nah puen hanelah ao dawkvah, tami pueng ni tahloi coungkacoelah a neng awh.
9 King Solomon made himself a chariot of the wood of Lebanon.
Solomon siangpahrang ni Lebanon thing hoi ama hanelah, kâkayawtnae hah a sak.
10 He made the pillars thereof of silver, the bottom thereof of gold, the covering of it of purple, the midst thereof being paved with love, for the daughters of Jerusalem.
Alungui e khomnaw hah, ngun hoi, a rahim e naw hah sui hoi, tahung nahane carawng hah Opaou e hni hoi a sak. Athung lae naw teh, Jerusalem canunaw ni lungpatawnae hoi a pathoup awh.
11 Go forth, O ye 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.
Zion canunaw kâpaluen e hnin hoi, lungthin a nawmnae hnin nah, a manu ni oupnae bawilakhung hah kâmuk sak e Solomon siangpahrang hah cet nateh khen awh.
