Song of Solomon 8
1 I wish that you were like my brother, who nursed at my mother's breasts. Then whenever I met you outside, I could kiss you, and no one would despise me.
巴不得你像我的兄弟， 像吃我母親奶的兄弟； 我在外頭遇見你就與你親嘴， 誰也不輕看我。
2 I would lead you and bring you into my mother's house— she who taught me. I would give you spiced wine to drink and some of the juice of my pomegranates.
我必引導你， 領你進我母親的家； 我可以領受教訓， 也就使你喝石榴汁釀的香酒。
3 His left hand is under my head and his right hand embraces me.
他的左手必在我頭下； 他的右手必將我抱住。
4 I want you to swear, daughters of Jerusalem, that you will not interrupt our lovemaking until it is over.
耶路撒冷的眾女子啊， 我囑咐你們： 不要驚動、不要叫醒我所親愛的， 等他自己情願。
5 Who is this who is coming up from the wilderness, leaning on her beloved? The woman speaking to the man I awakened you under the apricot tree; there your mother conceived you; there she gave birth to you, she delivered you.
那靠着良人從曠野上來的是誰呢？ 〔新娘〕 我在蘋果樹下叫醒你。 你母親在那裏為你劬勞； 生養你的在那裏為你劬勞。
6 Set me as a seal over your heart, like a seal on your arm, for love is as strong as death. Passionate devotion is as unrelenting as Sheol; its flames burst out; it is a blazing flame, a flame hotter than any other fire. (Sheol h7585)
求你將我放在你心上如印記， 帶在你臂上如戳記。 因為愛情如死之堅強， 嫉恨如陰間之殘忍； 所發的電光是火焰的電光， 是耶和華的烈焰。 (Sheol h7585)
7 Surging waters cannot quench love, nor can floods sweep it away. If a man gave all the possessions in his house for love, the offer would utterly be despised.
愛情，眾水不能熄滅， 大水也不能淹沒。 若有人拿家中所有的財寶要換愛情， 就全被藐視。
8 We have a little sister, and her breasts have not yet grown. What can we do for our sister on the day when she will be promised in marriage?
我們有一小妹； 她的兩乳尚未長成， 人來提親的日子， 我們當為她怎樣辦理？
9 If she is a wall, we will build on her a tower of silver. If she is a door, we will adorn her with boards of cedar.
她若是牆， 我們要在其上建造銀塔； 她若是門， 我們要用香柏木板圍護她。
10 I was a wall, but my breasts are now like fortress towers; so I am in his eyes as one who brings peace.
我是牆； 我兩乳像其上的樓。 那時，我在他眼中像得平安的人。
11 Solomon had a vineyard at Baal Hamon. He gave the vineyard to those who would maintain it. Each one was to bring a thousand shekels of silver for its fruit.
所羅門在巴力‧哈們有一葡萄園； 他將這葡萄園交給看守的人， 為其中的果子必交一千舍客勒銀子。
12 My vineyard, my very own, is before me; the thousand shekels are for you, Solomon, and the two hundred shekels are for those who maintain its fruit.
我自己的葡萄園在我面前。 所羅門哪，一千舍客勒歸你， 二百舍客勒歸看守果子的人。
13 You who live in the gardens, my companions are listening for your voice; let me hear it.
你這住在園中的， 同伴都要聽你的聲音， 求你使我也得聽見。
14 Hurry, my beloved, and be like a gazelle or a young stag on the mountains of spices.
我的良人哪，求你快來！ 如羚羊或小鹿在香草山上。
