Tonon-kiran'i Solomona 8
1 Enga anie ka ho tahaka ny anadahiko, izay ninono an’ ineny, ianao! Dia ho nahita anao teny ala-trano aho ka ho nanoroka anao. Eny tsy ho azon’ olona notevatevaina aho.
O that thou [wert] as my brother, that sucked the breasts of my mother! [when] I should find thee without, I would kiss thee; yea, I should not be despised.
2 Dia ho entiko ka hampidiriko ho ao an-tranon’ ineny ianao, ary hampianarinao aho; Hampisotroiko divay noharoharoan-java-manitra mbamin’ ny ranon’ ampongaben-danitro ianao.
I would lead thee, [and] bring thee into my mother’s house, [who] would instruct me: I would cause thee to drink of spiced wine of the juice of my pomegranate.
3 Aoka hanondana ahy ny tànany ankavia, ary aoka hanohona ahy ny tànany ankavanana.
His left hand [should be] under my head, and his right hand should embrace me.
4 Mampianiana anareo aho, ry zanakavavin’ i Jerosalema: Aza manaitra na mamoha ny fitiavana, raha tsy efa sitrapony.
I charge you, O daughters of Jerusalem, that ye stir not up, nor awake [my] love, until he please.
5 Iza moa iry vehivavy miakatra avy any an-efitra, mitehina amin’ ny malalany? Teo ambanin’ iny hazo poma no namohazako anao; Teo no niterahan-dreninao anao, eny, teo no nahararian’ ilay niteraka anao.
Who [is] this that cometh up from the wilderness, leaning upon her beloved? I raised thee up under the apple tree: there thy mother brought thee forth: there she brought thee forth [that] bare thee.
6 Ataovy toy ny fanombohan-kase ao am-ponao aho sy toy ny fanombohan-kase eo an-tsandrinao; Fa mahery toy ny fahafatesana ny fitiavana, masiaka tahaka ny fiainan-tsi-hita ny fahasaro-piaro; Ny lelafony dia lelafo midedadeda, eny, lelafon’ i Jehovah. (Sheol h7585)
Set me as a seal upon thine heart, as a seal upon thine arm: for love [is] strong as death; jealousy [is] cruel as the grave: the coals thereof [are] coals of fire, [which hath a] most vehement flame. (Sheol h7585)
7 Na dia ny ony maro aza tsy mahavono ny afon’ ny fitiavana, ary ny renirano tsy mahapaoka azy; Na dia misy olona manome ny fananany rehetra ao an-tranony aza hamidy fitiavana, dia hatao tsinontsinona izy.
Many waters cannot quench love, neither can the floods drown it: if [a] man would give all the substance of his house for love, it would utterly be contemned.
8 Manana zandrivavy tsy mbola misy nono izahay; Ahoana no hataonay amin’ ny zandrivavinay, raha mby amin’ izay andro hangatahan’ olona azy ho vady?
We have a little sister, and she hath no breasts: what shall we do for our sister in the day when she shall be spoken for?
9 Raha manda izy, dia hanangananay tilikambo volafotsy eo an-tampony; Fa raha varavarana kosa izy, dia hotampenanay hazo fisaka sedera.
If she [be] a wall, we will build upon her a palace of silver: and if she [be] a door, we will inclose her with boards of cedar.
10 Mànda aho, dia toy ny tilikambo ny nonoko. Raha eo imasony dia toy ny efa mahita soa aho.
I [am] a wall, and my breasts like towers: then was I in his eyes as one that found favour.
11 Solomona nanan-tanim-boaloboka tao Bala-hamona; Nahofany tamin’ olona mpiandry voly ny tanim-boaloboka, ka samy tsy maintsy mitondra sekely volafotsy arivo ho solon’ ny vokatra.
Solomon had a vineyard at Baal-hamon; he let out the vineyard unto keepers; every one for the fruit thereof was to bring a thousand [pieces] of silver.
12 Ny tanim-boaloboko, eny, ilay an’ ny tenako, dia eto anatrehako, Ny arivo kosa dia anao, ry Solomona, ary ny roan-jato ho an’ izay mpiandry voly.
My vineyard, which [is] mine, [is] before me: thou, O Solomon, [must have] a thousand, and those that keep the fruit thereof two hundred.
13 Ry mitoetra eny an-tsaha! Te-hihaino ny feonao ireo namako; Mba ampandreneso izany koa aho.
Thou that dwellest in the gardens, the companions hearken to thy voice: cause me to hear [it].
14 Mandosira, ry malalako, ary aoka ianao mba ho toy ny gazela na ny diera tanora eny an-tendrombohitry ny zava-manitra.
Make haste, my beloved, and be thou like to a roe or to a young hart upon the mountains of spices.
