Song of Solomon 3
1 All through the night [while I lay] on my bed, I longed for the one whom I love. I desired for him [to come], but he did not come.
На ложи моем в нощех исках, егоже возлюби душа моя, исках его, и не обретох его: воззвах его, и не послуша мене.
2 [So I said to myself], “I will get up now and walk around the city, through the streets and plazas, to search for the one whom I love.” [So] I [got up and] searched for him, but I could not find him.
Востану убо и обыду во граде и на торжищих и на стогнах, и поищу, егоже возлюби душа моя. Поисках его, и не обретох его: звах его, и не послуша мене.
3 The city watchmen saw me while they were patrolling/walking around the city. [I asked them], “Have you seen the one whom I love?”
Обретоша мя стрегущии, обходяще во граде: видесте ли, егоже возлюби душа моя?
4 As soon as I walked past them, I found the one whom I love. I clung to him and would not let him go until I had brought him to my mother’s house, to the room where my mother had conceived me (OR, where I was born).
Яко мало егда преидох от них, дондеже обретох, егоже возлюби душа моя: удержах его, и не оставих его, дондеже введох его в дом матере моея и в чертог заченшия мя.
5 You women of Jerusalem, solemnly promise me, while the does and gazelles [are listening], that you will not disturb us while we are making love until we are ready to quit.
Заклях вас, дщери Иерусалимския, в силах и в крепостех селных: аще подвижете и воздвижете любовь, дондеже аще восхощет.
6 Who is it that is coming from the desert, who is [stirring up dust] like a column of smoke from burning myrrh and incense [made from] spices [imported by] merchants?
Кто сия восходящая от пустыни, яко стебло дыма кадящее смирну и ливан, от всех благовоний мироварца?
7 It is [Solomon], [sitting in] his portable chair surrounded by 60 bodyguards chosen from the strongest/greatest warriors in Israel.
Се, одр Соломонь, шестьдесят сильных окрест его от сильных Израилевых,
8 They all have swords and they [all] (are trained to/know well how to) use them. Each one has his sword [strapped to] his side and [is prepared to defend Solomon from] dangers that might occur even during the night.
вси имуще оружия, научени на брань: муж, оружие его на бедре его от ужаса в нощех.
9 King Solomon [commanded his servants] to make that portable chair for him; [it was made] with wood from Lebanon.
Одр сотвори себе царь Соломон от древес Ливанских.
10 The [canopy that covered it] was (held up/supported) by posts made of silver, and the back of the chair was [embroidered] with gold. The seat/cushion was covered with purple cloth lovingly made/woven by the women of Jerusalem.
Столпы его сотвори сребряны и восклонение его злато: восход его багрян, внутрь его камение постлано, любовь от дщерей Иерусалимских.
11 You women of Jerusalem, come and look at King Solomon wearing the headdress that his mother put on his head on the day when he was married, the day when he [SYN] was very happy.
Дщери Сиони, изыдите и видите в цари Соломоне в венце, имже венча его мати его в день обручения его и в день веселия сердца его.
