雅歌 4
1 ああなんぢ美はしきかな わが佳耦よ ああなんぢうるはしきかな なんぢの目は面帕のうしろにありて鴿のごとし なんぢの髮はギレアデ山の腰に臥たる山羊の群に似たり
Behold, you are fair, my love; behold, you are fair; you have doves’ eyes within your locks: your hair is as a flock of goats, that appear from mount Gilead.
2 なんぢの齒は毛を剪たる牝羊の浴塲より出たるがごとし おのおの雙子をうみてひとつも子なきものはなし
Your teeth are like a flock of sheep that are even shorn, which came up from the washing; whereof every one bear twins, and none is barren among them.
3 なんぢの唇は紅色の線維のごとく その口は美はし なんぢの頬は面帕のうしろにありて石榴の半片に似たり
Your lips are like a thread of scarlet, and your speech is comely: your temples are like a piece of a pomegranate within your locks.
4 なんぢの頸項は武器庫にとて建たるダビデの戍樓のごとし その上には一千の盾を懸け列ぬ みな勇士の大楯なり
Your neck is like the tower of David built for an armory, where on there hang a thousand bucklers, all shields of mighty men.
5 なんぢの兩乳房は牝獐の雙子なる二箇の小鹿が百合花の中に草はみをるに似たり
Your two breasts are like two young roes that are twins, which feed among the lilies.
6 日の涼しくなるまで 影の消るまでわれ沒藥の山また乳香の岡に行べし
Until the day break, and the shadows flee away, I will get me to the mountain of myrrh, and to the hill of frankincense.
7 わが佳耦よ なんぢはことごとくうるはしくしてすこしのきずもなし
You are all fair, my love; there is no spot in you.
8 新婦よ レバノンより我にともなへ レバノンより我とともに來れ アマナの巓セニルまたヘルモンの巓より望み 獅子の穴また豹の山より望め
Come with me from Lebanon, my spouse, with me from Lebanon: look from the top of Amana, from the top of Shenir and Hermon, from the lions’ dens, from the mountains of the leopards.
9 わが妹わが新婦よ なんぢはわが心を奪へり なんぢは只一目をもてまた頸玉の一をもてわが心をうばへり
You have ravished my heart, my sister, my spouse; you have ravished my heart with one of your eyes, with one chain of your neck.
10 わが妹わが新婦よ なんぢの愛は樂しきかな なんぢの愛は酒よりも遙にすぐれ なんぢの香膏の馨は一切の香物よりもすぐれたり
How fair is your love, my sister, my spouse! how much better is your love than wine! and the smell of your ointments than all spices!
11 新婦よ なんぢの唇は蜜を滴らす なんぢの舌の底には蜜と乳とあり なんぢの衣裳の香氣はレバノンの香氣のごとし
Your lips, O my spouse, drop as the honeycomb: honey and milk are under your tongue; and the smell of your garments is like the smell of Lebanon.
12 わが妹わがはなよめよ なんぢは閉たる園 閉たる水源 封じたる泉水のごとし
A garden enclosed is my sister, my spouse; a spring shut up, a fountain sealed.
13 なんぢの園の中に生いづる者は石榴及びもろもろの佳果またコペル及びナルダの草
Your plants are an orchard of pomegranates, with pleasant fruits; camphire, with spikenard,
14 ナルダ 番紅花 菖蒲 桂枝さまざまの乳香の木および沒藥 蘆薈一切の貴とき香物なり
Spikenard and saffron; calamus and cinnamon, with all trees of frankincense; myrrh and aloes, with all the chief spices:
15 なんぢは園の泉水 活る水の井 レバノンよりいづる流水なり
A fountain of gardens, a well of living waters, and streams from Lebanon.
16 北風よ起れ 南風よ來れ 我園を吹てその香氣を揚よ ねがはくはわが愛する者のおのが園にいりきたりてその佳き果を食はんことを
Awake, O north wind; and come, you south; blow on my garden, that the spices thereof may flow out. Let my beloved come into his garden, and eat his pleasant fruits.
