< 아가 6 >

1 여자 중 극히 어여쁜 자야 너의 사랑하는 자가 어디로 갔는가 너의 사랑하는 자가 어디로 돌이켰는가 우리가 너와 함께 찾으리라
You who are the most beautiful of all the women, where has the one who loves you gone? [If you tell us] which [RHQ] direction he went, we will go with you to search for him.
2 나의 사랑하는 자가 자기 동산으로 내려가 향기로운 꽃밭에 이르러서 동산 가운데서 양떼를 먹이며 백합화를 꺾는구나
The one who loves me has now come [to me, who am like] [MET, EUP] his garden, He has come to [enjoy my (charms/physical attractions) which are like] [MET, EUP] spices, to enjoy cuddling up to me [EUP, MET], and [kissing my lips, which are like] [MET] lilies.
3 나는 나의 사랑하는 자에게 속하였고 나의 사랑하는 자는 내게 속하였다 그가 백합화 가운데서 그 양떼를 먹이는구나
I belong to the one who loves me, and the one who loves me belongs to me; he [enjoys kissing] my lips like [MET] [a shepherd enjoys] taking care of [his sheep].
4 내 사랑아! 너의 어여쁨이 디르사 같고 너의 고움이 예루살렘 같고 엄위함이 기치를 벌인 군대 같구나
My darling, you are beautiful, like [SIM] Tirzah [the capital city of Israel] and Jerusalem [the capital city of Judah are beautiful]; you are as exciting [MET] as a [group/battalion of] troops holding up their banners.
5 네 눈이 나를 놀래니 돌이켜 나를 보지 말라 네 머리털은 길르앗 산 기슭에 누운 염소떼 같고
Quit looking at me like that, because your eyes excite me very much. Your [long black] hair [moves from side to side] like [SIM] a flock of [black] goats [moving down the slopes] of Gilead [Mountain].
6 네 이는 목욕장에서 나온 암양떼 곧 새끼 없는 것은 하나도 없이 각각 쌍태를 낳은 양같고
Your teeth are [very white] like [SIM] a flock of sheep [whose wool] has just been shorn and that have come up from being washed [in a stream]. You have all of your teeth; none of them is missing.
7 너울 속의 너의 뺨은 석류 한 쪽 같구나
Beneath your veil, your cheeks are like [SIM] the halves of a pomegranate.
8 왕후가 육십이요 비빈이 팔십이요 시녀가 무수하되
Even if a king had 60 queens and 80 (concubines/slave wives) and more young women than anyone can count,
9 나의 비둘기, 나의 완전한 자는 하나 뿐이로구나 그는 그 어미의 외딸이요 그 낳은 자의 귀중히 여기는 자로구나 여자들이 그를 보고 복된 자라 하고 왕후와 비빈들도 그를 칭찬하는구나
[none of them would be like] my dove, who is perfect, you who are your mother’s only daughter, whom your mother considers to be very precious. [Other] young women who see you say that you are fortunate, and the queens and concubines recognize that you [are very beautiful].
10 아침빛 같이 뚜렷하고 달 같이 아름답고 해 같이 맑고 기치를 벌인 군대 같이 엄위한 여자가 누구인가
Who is [RHQ] this woman who is [as delightful] as [SIM] the dawn, as fair/delightful [to look at] as [the light of] the moon, as exciting as a [group/battalion of] troops holding up their banners?
11 골짜기의 푸른 초목을 보려고 포도나무가 순이 났는가 석류나무가 꽃이 피었는가 알려고 내가 호도 동산으로 내려 갔을 때에
I went down to some walnut trees to look at the new plants that were growing in the valley. I wanted to see if the grapevines had budded or if the pomegranate trees were blooming.
12 부지중에 내 마음이 나로 내 귀한 백성의 수레 가운데 이르게 하였구나
[But] before I realized it, my desire [to make love caused me to be as excited as] a prince riding in a chariot.
13 돌아오고 돌아오라 술람미 여자야 돌아오고 돌아오라 우리로 너를 보게 하라
You who are the perfect one, come back [to us], in order that we may see you! Why do you want to look at this woman who is perfect, like [SIM] you like to watch two rows/lines of people dancing?
