雅歌 6
1 婦女のいと美はしきものよ 汝の愛する者は何處へゆきしや なんぢの愛する者はいづこへおもむきしや われら汝とともにたづねん
Where is your beloved gone, O you fairest among women? where is your beloved turned aside? that we may seek him with you.
2 わが愛するものは己の園にくだり 香しき花の床にゆき 園の中にて群を牧ひ また百合花を採る
My beloved is gone down into his garden, to the beds of spices, to feed in the gardens, and to gather lilies.
3 我はわが愛する者につき わが愛する者はわれにつく 彼は百合花の中にてその群を牧ふ
I am my beloved’s, and my beloved is mine: he feeds among the lilies.
4 わが佳耦よ なんぢは美はしきことテルザのごとく 華やかなることエルサレムのごとく 畏るべきこと旗をあげたる軍旅のごとし
You are beautiful, O my love, as Tirzah, comely as Jerusalem, terrible as an army with banners.
5 なんぢの目は我をおそれしむ 請ふ我よりはなれしめよ なんぢの髪はギレアデ山の腰に臥たる山羊の群に似たり
Turn away your eyes from me, for they have overcome me: your hair is as a flock of goats that appear from Gilead.
6 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 as a flock of sheep which go up from the washing, whereof every one bears twins, and there is not one barren among them.
7 なんぢの頬は面帕の後にありて石榴の半片に似たり
As a piece of a pomegranate are your temples within your locks.
8 后六十人 妃嬪八十人 數しられぬ處女あり
There are three score queens, and fourscore concubines, and virgins without number.
9 わが鴿わが完き者はただ一人のみ 彼はその母の獨子にして産たる者の喜ぶところの者なり 女子等は彼を見て幸福なる者ととなへ 后等妃嬪等は彼を見て讃む
My dove, my undefiled is but one; she is the only one of her mother, she is the choice one of her that bore her. The daughters saw her, and blessed her; yes, the queens and the concubines, and they praised her.
10 この晨光のごとくに見えわたり 月のごとくに美はしく 日のごとくに輝やき 畏るべきこと旗をあげたる軍旅のごとき者は誰ぞや われ胡桃の園にくだりゆき 谷の青き草木を見 葡萄や芽しし石榴の花や咲しと見回しをりしに
Who is she that looks forth as the morning, fair as the moon, clear as the sun, and terrible as an army with banners?
I went down into the garden of nuts to see the fruits of the valley, and to see whether the vine flourished and the pomegranates budded.
12 意はず知ず我が心われをしてわが貴とき民の車の中間にあらしむ
Or ever I was aware, my soul made me like the chariots of Amminadib.
13 歸れ歸れシユラミの婦よ 歸れ歸れ われら汝を觀んことをねがふ なんぢら何とてマハナイムの跳舞を觀るごとくにシユラミの婦を觀んとねがふや
Return, return, O Shulamite; return, return, that we may look on you. What will you see in the Shulamite? As it were the company of two armies.
