< 雅歌 4 >

1 我的佳偶,你甚美麗!你甚美麗! 你的眼在帕子內好像鴿子眼。 你的頭髮如同山羊群臥在基列山旁。
Oh, you are beautiful, my love; you are beautiful. Your eyes are doves behind your veil. Your hair is like a flock of goats going down from Mount Gilead.
2 你的牙齒如新剪毛的一群母羊, 洗淨上來,個個都有雙生, 沒有一隻喪掉子的。
Your teeth are like a flock of newly shorn ewes, coming up from the washing place. Each one has a twin, and none among them is bereaved.
3 你的唇好像一條朱紅線; 你的嘴也秀美。 你的兩太陽在帕子內, 如同一塊石榴。
Your lips are like a thread of scarlet; your mouth is lovely. Your cheeks are like pomegranate halves behind your veil.
4 你的頸項好像大衛建造收藏軍器的高臺, 其上懸掛一千盾牌, 都是勇士的籐牌。
Your neck is like the tower of David built in rows of stone, with a thousand shields hanging on it, all the shields of soldiers.
5 你的兩乳好像百合花中吃草的一對小鹿, 就是母鹿雙生的。
Your two breasts are like two fawns, twins of a gazelle, grazing among the lilies.
6 我要往沒藥山和乳香岡去, 直等到天起涼風、 日影飛去的時候回來。
Until the dawn arrives and the shadows flee away, I will go to the mountain of myrrh and to the hill of frankincense.
7 我的佳偶,你全然美麗, 毫無瑕疵!
You are beautiful in every way, my love and there is no blemish in you.
8 我的新婦,求你與我一同離開黎巴嫩, 與我一同離開黎巴嫩。 從亞瑪拿頂, 從示尼珥與黑門頂, 從有獅子的洞, 從有豹子的山往下觀看。
Come with me from Lebanon, my bride. Come with me from Lebanon; come from the top of Amana, from the top of Senir and Hermon, from lions' dens, from mountain dens of leopards.
9 我妹子,我新婦, 你奪了我的心。 你用眼一看, 用你項上的一條金鍊, 奪了我的心!
You have stolen my heart, my sister, my bride; you have stolen my heart, with just one look at me, with just one jewel of your necklace.
10 我妹子,我新婦, 你的愛情何其美! 你的愛情比酒更美! 你膏油的香氣勝過一切香品!
How beautiful is your love, my sister, my bride! How much better is your love than wine, and the fragrance of your perfume than any spice.
11 我新婦,你的嘴唇滴蜜, 好像蜂房滴蜜; 你的舌下有蜜,有奶。 你衣服的香氣如黎巴嫩的香氣。
Your lips, my bride, drip honey; honey and milk are under your tongue; the fragrance of your garments is like the fragrance of Lebanon.
12 我妹子,我新婦, 乃是關鎖的園, 禁閉的井,封閉的泉源。
My sister, my bride is a garden locked up, a garden locked up, a spring that is sealed.
13 你園內所種的結了石榴, 有佳美的果子, 並鳳仙花與哪噠樹。
Your branches are a grove of pomegranate trees with choice fruits, and of henna and nard plants,
14 有哪噠和番紅花, 菖蒲和桂樹, 並各樣乳香木、沒藥、沉香, 與一切上等的果品。
Nard and saffron, calamus and cinnamon with all kinds of spices, myrrh and aloes with all the finest spices.
15 你是園中的泉,活水的井, 從黎巴嫩流下來的溪水。
You are a garden spring, a well of fresh water, streams flowing down from Lebanon.
16 北風啊,興起! 南風啊,吹來! 吹在我的園內, 使其中的香氣發出來。 願我的良人進入自己園裏, 吃他佳美的果子。
Awake, north wind; come, south wind; blow on my garden so that its spices may give off their fragrance. May my beloved come into his garden and eat some of its choice fruit.
