< Song of Solomon 5 >

1 My bride, [you who are dearer to me than] my sister, I have come [to cuddle up to you] [MET, EUP]; [it will be as though] I will be gathering myrrh with my other spices, and eating my honey and my honeycomb, and drinking my wine and my milk. You two who love each other, enjoy your lovemaking; enjoy all that you want to.
He entrado en mi jardín, mi hermana, mi novia; he recogido mi mirra con mi especia; he probado mi panal con mi miel; he bebido mi vino con mi leche. Amigos, coman, oh amados; beban vino, en abundancia.
2 I was partially asleep, but my mind was [still] awake. Then I heard the one who loves me knocking [at the door]. [He said], “My darling, [you who are dearer to me than] my sister, my dear friend, my perfect one, my dove [MET], open the door for me! My hair is wet from the dew, from the mist [that has fallen during] the night.”
Estoy durmiendo, pero mi corazón está despierto; es el sonido de mi amado en la puerta, diciendo: Ábreme, mi hermana, mi amor, mi paloma, mi muy hermosa; Mi cabeza está mojada de rocío, y las gotas del rocío nocturno corre por mi cabello.
3 [But] I had already taken off my robe; I did not [RHQ] want to put it on again [to open the door]. I had [already] washed my feet; I did not [RHQ] want them to become dirty again.
Me he quitado la túnica; ¿Cómo puedo ponérmela otra vez? Mis pies he lavado; ¿Cómo puedo ensuciarlos otra vez?
4 The one who loves me put his hand through the opening [in the wall], and I was thrilled [that he was there].
Mi amado puso su mano en la puerta, y mi corazón se conmovió por él.
5 I got up to open [the door] for the one who loves me, [but first I put a lot of] myrrh on my hands. The myrrh was dripping from my fingers while I unlatched the bolt.
Me levanté para dejar entrar a mi amado; y de mis manos destilaba mirra, y mis dedos con mirra líquida, en la cerradura de la puerta.
6 I opened [the door] for the man who loves me, but he had left. He had turned away and was gone! I was very disappointed [IDM]; I searched for him, but I could not find him. I called him, but he did not answer.
Abrí la puerta a mi amado; pero mi amado se había ido, y se había ido, mi alma se fue tras él cuando me dio la espalda; Fui tras él, pero no lo hallé; Dije su nombre, pero él no me dio respuesta.
7 The city watchmen saw me while they were walking around the city. They beat me and wounded me [because they thought I must be a prostitute]; those men who were guarding the city walls took my robe.
Los guardianes que recorren el pueblo me encontraron; me dieron golpes y heridas; Los guardianes de las paredes me quitaron el velo.
8 You young women of Jerusalem, I plead with you, if you see the man who loves me, tell him [DOU] that I am very disappointed that we did not make love.
Júrenme, oh hijas de Jerusalem, si ven a mi ser amado, ¿qué le dirán? Que estoy enferma de amor.
9 You who are the (fairest/most beautiful) among women, why [do you think that] the one who loves you is better than other men? In what way is the man who loves you better than other men with the result that you ask us to tell him that?
¿Qué es tu amado más que otro amado, oh más hermosa entre las mujeres? ¿Qué es tu amado más que otro, que nos haces jurar?
10 The man who loves me is handsome and healthy, (outstanding among/better than) (10,000/an uncountable number of) [other men].
Mi ser amado es blanco y sonrosado, el principal entre los diez mil.
11 His head is [beautiful, like] [MET] purest gold; his hair is wavy and as black as [SIM] a raven/crow.
Su cabeza es como el oro más delicado; Su pelo es grueso, y negro como un cuervo.
12 His eyes [are as gentle] as [SIM] doves along the streams; [the white parts of] his eyes are as white as [MET] milk, [with what resembles] jewels inlaid in them.
Sus ojos son como los de las palomas junto a los arroyos de agua, lavados con leche y colocados correctamente.
13 His cheeks are like [SIM] a garden full of spice trees that produce [sweet-smelling] perfume. His lips are [like] [SIM] lilies that have myrrh/perfume dripping from them.
Su rostro es como lechos de especias, que ofrecen perfumes de todo tipo; Sus labios como lirios, destilando mirra líquida.
14 His arms are like [MET] gold bars/rods that are decorated with precious stones/jewels. His body is like [SIM] [a column/pillar of] ivory that is decorated with (sapphires/valuable [blue] stones).
Sus manos son como anillos de oro adornados con piedras de berilo; Su vientre es como un marfil pulido cubierto de zafiros.
15 His legs are [like] [MET] pillars of marble that are set in bases made of pure gold. He is [majestic, like the mountains of] [SIM] Lebanon, as delightful/beautiful as [SIM] cedar [trees].
Sus piernas son como pilares de mármol fundadas sobre una base de oro delicado; Su apariencia son como el Líbano, hermosas como el cedro.
16 His kisses [MTY] are extremely sweet; he is very handsome. You young women of Jerusalem, all that tells you why the one who loves me and who is my friend [is better than other men].
Su paladar es muy dulce; Sí, él es todo hermoso. Este es mi ser amado, y este es mi amigo, oh hijas de Jerusalén.
