< Kidung Agung 6 >
1 --Ke mana perginya kekasihmu, hai jelita di antara wanita? Ke jurusan manakah kekasihmu pergi, supaya kami mencarinya besertamu?
O the fairest among women, whither is thy welbeloued gone? whither is thy welbeloued turned aside, that we may seeke him with thee?
2 --Kekasihku telah turun ke kebunnya, ke bedeng rempah-rempah untuk menggembalakan domba dalam kebun dan memetik bunga bakung.
My welbeloued is gone downe into his garden to the beds of spices, to feede in the gardens, and to gather lilies.
3 Aku kepunyaan kekasihku, dan kepunyaanku kekasihku, yang menggembalakan domba di tengah-tengah bunga bakung.
I am my welbeloueds, and my welbeloued is mine, who feedeth among the lilies.
4 Cantik engkau, manisku, seperti kota Tirza, juita seperti Yerusalem, dahsyat seperti bala tentara dengan panji-panjinya.
Thou art beautifull, my loue, as Tirzah, comely as Ierusale, terrible as an army with baners.
5 Palingkanlah matamu dari padaku, sebab aku menjadi bingung karenanya. Rambutmu bagaikan kawanan kambing yang bergelombang turun dari Gilead.
Turne away thine eyes from me: for they ouercome mee: thine heare is like a flocke of goates, which looke downe from Gilead.
6 Gigimu bagaikan kawanan domba, yang keluar dari tempat pembasuhan, yang beranak kembar semuanya, yang tak beranak tak ada.
Thy teeth are like a flocke of sheepe, which goe vp from the washing, which euery one bring out twinnes, and none is barren among them.
7 Bagaikan belahan buah delima pelipismu di balik telekungmu.
Thy temples are within thy lockes as a piece of a pomegranate.
8 Permaisuri ada enam puluh, selir delapan puluh, dan dara-dara tak terbilang banyaknya.
There are threescore Queenes and fourescore concubines and of the damsels without nober.
9 Tetapi dialah satu-satunya merpatiku, idam-idamanku, satu-satunya anak ibunya, anak kesayangan bagi yang melahirkannya; puteri-puteri melihatnya dan menyebutnya bahagia, permaisuri-permaisuri dan selir-selir memujinya.
But my doue is alone, and my vndefiled, she is the onely daughter of her mother, and shee is deare to her that bare her: the daughters haue seene her and counted her blessed: euen the Queenes and the concubines, and they haue praised her.
10 "Siapakah dia yang muncul laksana fajar merekah, indah bagaikan bulan purnama, bercahaya bagaikan surya, dahsyat seperti bala tentara dengan panji-panjinya?"
Who is shee that looketh foorth as the morning, fayre as the moone, pure as the sunne, terrible as an armie with banners!
11 Ke kebun kenari aku turun melihat kuntum-kuntum di lembah, melihat apakah pohon anggur berkuncup dan pohon-pohon delima berbunga.
I went downe to the garden of nuttes, to see the fruites of the valley, to see if the vine budded, and if the pomegranates flourished.
12 Tak sadar diri aku; kerinduanku menempatkan aku di atas kereta orang bangsawan.
I knewe nothing, my soule set me as the charets of my noble people.
13 Kembalilah, kembalilah, ya gadis Sulam, kembalilah, kembalilah, supaya kami dapat melihat engkau! Mengapa kamu senang melihat gadis Sulam itu seperti melihat tari-tarian perang?
Returne, returne, O Shulamite, returne: returne that we may behold thee. What shall you see in the Shulamite, but as the company of an armie?
