Song of Solomon 8

1 Who shall give thee to me for my brother, sucking the breasts of my mother, that I may find thee without, and kiss thee, and now no man may despise me?

巴不得你像我的兄弟， 像吃我母親奶的兄弟； 我在外頭遇見你就與你親嘴， 誰也不輕看我。

2 I will take hold of thee, and bring thee Into my mother’s house: there thou shalt teach me, and I will give thee a cup of spiced wine and new wine of my pomegranates.

我必引導你， 領你進我母親的家； 我可以領受教訓， 也就使你喝石榴汁釀的香酒。

3 His left hand under my head, and his right hand shall embrace me.

他的左手必在我頭下； 他的右手必將我抱住。

4 I adjure you, O daughters of Jerusalem, that you stir not up, nor awake my love till she please.

耶路撒冷的眾女子啊， 我囑咐你們： 不要驚動、不要叫醒我所親愛的， 等他自己情願。

5 Who is this that cometh up from the desert, flowing with delights, leaning upon her beloved? Under the apple tree I raised thee up: there thy mother was corrupted, there she was defloured that bore thee.

那靠着良人從曠野上來的是誰呢？ 〔新娘〕 我在蘋果樹下叫醒你。 你母親在那裏為你劬勞； 生養你的在那裏為你劬勞。

6 Put me as a seal upon thy heart, as a seal upon thy arm, for love is strong as death, jealousy as hard as hell, the lamps thereof are fire and flames. (Sheol h7585)

求你將我放在你心上如印記， 帶在你臂上如戳記。 因為愛情如死之堅強， 嫉恨如陰間之殘忍； 所發的電光是火焰的電光， 是耶和華的烈焰。 (Sheol h7585)

7 Many waters cannot quench charity, neither can the floods drown it: if a man should give all the substance of his house for love, he shall despise it as nothing.

愛情，眾水不能熄滅， 大水也不能淹沒。 若有人拿家中所有的財寶要換愛情， 就全被藐視。

8 Our sister is little, and hath no breasts. What shall we do to our sister in the day when she is to be spoken to?

我們有一小妹； 她的兩乳尚未長成， 人來提親的日子， 我們當為她怎樣辦理？

9 If she be a wall: let us build upon it bulwarks of silver: if she be a door, let us join it together with boards or cedar.

她若是牆， 我們要在其上建造銀塔； 她若是門， 我們要用香柏木板圍護她。

10 I am a wall: and my breasts are as a tower since I am become in his presence as one finding peace.

我是牆； 我兩乳像其上的樓。 那時，我在他眼中像得平安的人。

11 The peaceable had a vineyard, in that which hath people: he let out the same to keepers, every man bringeth for the fruit thereof a thousand pieces of silver.

所羅門在巴力‧哈們有一葡萄園； 他將這葡萄園交給看守的人， 為其中的果子必交一千舍客勒銀子。

12 My vineyard is before me. A thousand are for thee, the peaceable, and two hundred for them that keep the fruit thereof.

我自己的葡萄園在我面前。 所羅門哪，一千舍客勒歸你， 二百舍客勒歸看守果子的人。

13 Thou that dwellest in the gardens, the friends hearken: make me hear thy voice.

你這住在園中的， 同伴都要聽你的聲音， 求你使我也得聽見。

14 Flee away, O my beloved, and be like to the roe, and to the young hart upon the mountains of aromatical spices.

我的良人哪，求你快來！ 如羚羊或小鹿在香草山上。
