< Song of Solomon 8 >
1 Who? will he give you like a brother to me [the] suckling-child of [the] breasts of mother my I will find you on the outside (I will kiss you *L(abh)*) also not people will despise me.
Ninatamani ungekua kama kaka yangu, aliye nyonya ziwa la mama yangu. Ili kwamba kila ningekuona nje ningekubusu pasipo mtu kunidharau.
2 I will lead you I will bring you to [the] house of mother my [who] she taught me I will give to drink you some of [the] wine of spice some of [the] juice of pomegranate my.
Nitakuongoza na kukuleta kwenye nyumba ya mama yangu, na utanifundisha. Nitakupa mvinyo ulio chachwa unywe na baadhi ya jwisi ya komamanga. Mwanamke mdogo akizungumza mwenyewe
3 Left [hand] his [is] under head my and right [hand] his it embraces me.
Mkono wake wa kushoto uko chini ya kichwa changu na mkono wake wa kulia wanikumbatia. Mwanamke akiongea na wanawake wengine
4 I adjure you O daughters of Jerusalem why? will you awaken - and why? will you arouse love until that it will please.
Ninataka muape, mabinti wa wanaume wa Yerusalemu, kuwa hamtavuruga mapenzi yetu hadi yatakapo isha yenyewe. Wanawake wa Yerusalemu wakizungumza
5 Who? this [is] coming up from the wilderness leaning herself on lover her under the apple tree I aroused you there she was in labor with you mother your there she was in labor she bore you.
Ni nani huyu anaye kuja kutoka nyikani, amemuegemea mpenzi wake? Mwanamke mdogo akizungumza na mpenzi wake nimekuamsha chini ya mti wa mpera; pale mama yako alichukua mimba; pale alikuzaa, alijifungua wewe.
6 Put me like seal on heart your like seal on arm your for [is] strong like death love [is] severe like Sheol jealousy flashes its [are] flashes of fire a flame of [the] Lord. (Sheol )
Nieka kama muhuri kwenye moyo wako, kama muhuri kwenye mkono wako, kwa kuwa mapenzi yana nguvu kama mauti. Mapenzi mazito hayana kurudi kama kwenda kuzimu; miale yake yalipuka; ni miale ya moto inayo waka, miale yenye joto kuliko moto wowote. (Sheol )
7 Waters many not they are able to extinguish love and rivers not they will overflow it if he will give anyone all [the] wealth of house his for love certainly people will despise it.
Maji yalio zuka hayawezi kuzimisha upendo, wala mafuriko hayawezi kuondoa. Mwanaume akitoa mali zake zote kwa ajili ya upendo, ukarimu wake utadharauliwa. Kaka zake mwanamke mdogo wakizungumza wenyewe
8 A sister [belongs] to us small and breasts not [belong] to her what? will we do for sister our on the day when it will be spoken for her.
Tuna dada mdogo, na matiti yake bado hayajakua. Nini tutamfanyia dada yetu siku hatakayo ahidiwa kuolewa?
9 If [is] a wall she we will build on her a battlement of silver and if [is] a door she we will shut up over her a board of cedar.
Kama ni ukuta, tutamjengea juu yake mnara wa fedha. Kama ni mlango, tutampamba kwa mbao za mierezi. Mwanamke mdogo akizungumza peke yake
10 I [was] a wall and breasts my [are] like towers then I was in view his like [one who] finds peace.
Nilikuwa ukuta, lakini matiti yangu sasa ni kama nguzo imara; hivyo nimekomaa machoni pake. Mwanamke mdogo akizungumza mwenyewe
11 A vineyard it belonged to Solomon at Baal-Hamon he gave the vineyard to [those who] keep each one he will bring for fruit its a thousand silver.
Sulemani alikuwa na shamba la mizabibu huko Baali Hamoni. Aliwakodishia wao ambao watalitunza. Kila mmoja alipaswa kuleta shekeli elfu moja za fedha kwa matunda yake.
12 Vineyard my which [belongs] to me [is] before me the thousand [shekels] [belong] to you O Solomon and two hundred [shekels] [belong] to [those who] keep fruit its.
Shamba langu ka mzabibu ni langu, shekeli elfu moja ni za kwako, Sulemani mpenzi, na shekeli mia mbili ni za wale wanao tunza matunda yake. Mpenzi wa mwanamke akizungumza naye.
13 (O [one who] dwells *L(abh)*) in the gardens companions [are] listening for voice your cause to hear [it] me.
Wewe unaye ishi katika bustani, marafiki zangu wanasikiliza sauti yako; acha na mimi niweanaye isikia pia. Mwanamke mdogo akiongea na mpenzi wake
14 Hasten - O lover my and be like yourself a gazelle or [the] fawn of the deer on mountains of spices.
Harakisha, mpenzi wangu, na uwe kama paa au mtoto wa paa kwenye milima ya manukato.
