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.
Sɛ anka woyɛɛ me nuabarima a wunum me na nufu ano, na mihuu wo wɔ abɔnten so a, anka mefew wʼano, a obiara rentumi mmu me animtiaa.
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.
Anka medi wʼanim na mede wo aba me na fi, ɔno a wakyerɛkyerɛ me. Anka mɛma wo bobesa a wɔde pɛprɛ afra mu, me ntunkum mu nsu dɔkɔdɔkɔ no bi.
3 Left [hand] his [is] under head my and right [hand] his it embraces me.
Ne nsa benkum da mʼatiko na ne nsa nifa aka me afam ne bo.
4 I adjure you O daughters of Jerusalem why? will you awaken - and why? will you arouse love until that it will please.
Yerusalem mmabea, mehyɛ mo sɛ, morennyan na morenhwanyan ɔdɔ mu kosi bere a ɛsɛ mu.
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.
Hena na ofi sare so reba a otweri ne dɔfo koko mu yi? Ababaa: Mekanyan wo wɔ aprɛ dua no ase; ɛhɔ na wo na nyinsɛnee wo, ɛhɔ na nea ɔkoo awo no woo wo.
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 h7585)
Fa me to wo koma so sɛ nsɔwanode, sɛ nsɔwanode wɔ wʼabasa so, efisɛ ɔdɔ ano yɛ den sɛ owu, ne ninkutwe tim hɔ sɛ ɔda. Ɛhyehye sɛ ogyatannaa, sɛ ogyatannaa a ano yɛ den pa ara. (Sheol h7585)
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.
Nsu dodow rentumi nnum ɔdɔ; nsubɔnten rentumi nhohoro nkɔ. Sɛ obi de ne fi ahonya nyinaa bɛsesa ɔdɔ a anka wɔremmu no ade a ɛsom bo.
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.
Yɛwɔ nuabea akumaa bi a, ne nufu mmobɔɔ ɛ. Dɛn na yɛbɛyɛ ama yɛn nuabea yi wɔ da a wobebisa no ase?
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.
Sɛ ɔyɛ ɔfasu a, yebesi dwetɛ abantenten abɔ ne ho ban. Sɛ ɔyɛ ɔpon a, yɛde sida besiw ne pon ano kwan.
10 I [was] a wall and breasts my [are] like towers then I was in view his like [one who] finds peace.
Meyɛ ɔfasu, na me nufu te sɛ abantenten. Enti nʼani so no mayɛ sɛ obi a ɔde nea ɛsɔ ani reba.
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.
Na Salomo wɔ bobeturo wɔ Baal-Hamon; ɔde ne bobeturo no maa apaafo. Na ɛsɛ sɛ wɔn mu biara tua no nnwetɛbona apem.
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.
Nanso me bobeturo yi yɛ me de. Me de, meremfa mma; Salomo de ne de gye nnwetɛbona apem, na otua nʼapaafo nnwetɛbona ahannu ma wɔhwɛ ne nnuaba no so.
13 (O [one who] dwells *L(abh)*) in the gardens companions [are] listening for voice your cause to hear [it] me.
Wo a wote turo no mu ne nnamfonom a wɔka wo ho, ma mente wo nne.
14 Hasten - O lover my and be like yourself a gazelle or [the] fawn of the deer on mountains of spices.
Bra ma yɛnkɔ, me dɔfo, na yɛ wo ho sɛ ɔdabɔ ba anaasɛ ɔforote ba a ɔwɔ mmepɔw a nnuhuam ahyɛ so ma so.
