< Song of Solomon 4 >

1 Behold, thou art fair, my love; behold, thou art fair; thou hast doves’ eyes within thy locks: thy hair is as a flock of goats, that appear from mount Gilead.
◆新郎: 我的愛卿! 妳多麼美麗! 妳的兩眼隱在面紗後,有如一對鴿眼;妳的頭髮猶如由基肋阿得山下來的一群山羊。
2 Thy teeth are like a flock of sheep that are even shorn, which came up from the washing; all of which bear twins, and none is barren among them.
妳的牙齒像一群剪毛後洗潔上來的母綿羊,都懹有雙胎,沒有不生育的。
3 Thy lips are like a thread of scarlet, and thy speech is comely: thy temples are like a piece of pomegranate within thy locks.
妳的嘴脣像一縷朱紅線,妳的小口嬌美可愛;妳隱在面紗後的兩頰,有如分兩半的石榴。
4 Thy neck is like the tower of David built for an armoury, on which hang a thousand bucklers, all shields of mighty men.
妳的頭頸宛如達味的寶塔,建築如寶疊,懸有上千的盾牌都是武士的利器。
5 Thy two breasts are like two young roes that are twins, which feed among the lilies.
妳的兩個乳房,好似母羚羊的一對孿生小羚羊,牧放在百合花中。
6 Until the day shall break, and the shadows flee away, I will go up to the mountain of myrrh, and to the hill of frankincense.
趁晚風還未生涼,日影還未消失,我要到沒藥山,上乳香嶺。
7 Thou art all fair, my love; there is no spot in thee.
我的愛卿! 妳是全美的,妳毫無瑕疵。
8 Come with me from Lebanon, my spouse, with me from Lebanon: look from the top of Amana, from the top of Shenir and Hermon, from the lions’ dens, from the mountains of the leopards.
妳從黎巴嫩下來,離開阿瑪納山巔,色尼爾和赫爾孟山頂,獅子的巢穴,豹子的山崗。
9 Thou hast ravished my heart, my sister, my spouse; thou hast ravished my heart with one of thy eyes, with one chain of thy neck.
,妳奪去了我的心! 妳回目一顧,妳項鏈上的一顆珍珠,奪去了我的心。
10 How fair is thy love, my sister, my spouse! how much better is thy love than wine! and the fragrance of thy ointments than all spices!
我的妹妹,我的新娘! 妳的愛撫多麼甘甜,妳的愛撫勝過美洒,妳香液的芬芳超越一切的香料。
11 Thy lips, O my spouse, drop as the honeycomb: honey and milk are under thy tongue; and the scent of thy garments is like the fragrance of Lebanon.
我的新娘! 妳的嘴脣滴流巒蜜,妳的舌下有蜜有奶;妳衣服的芬芳好似乳香。
12 A garden inclosed is my sister, my spouse; a spring shut up, a fountain sealed.
我的妹妹,我的新娘! 是關閉的花園,是一座關鎖的花園,我一個封鎖的泉源。
13 Thy plants are an orchard of pomegranates, with pleasant fruits; henna, with spikenard,
妳吐苗萌芽,形成了石榴園,內有各種珍奇的果木:鳳仙和玫瑰,杳樹,
14 Spikenard and saffron; calamus and cinnamon, with all trees of frankincense; myrrh and aloes, with all the chief spices:
甘松和番紅,丁香和肉桂,各種乳香樹,沒藥蘆薈,以及各種奇香異草。
15 A fountain of gardens, a well of living waters, and streams from Lebanon.
妳是湧出的水泉,是從黎巴嫩流下的活水泉。新娘:
16 Awake, O north wind; and come, thou south; blow upon my garden, that its spices may flow out. Let my beloved come into his garden, and eat his pleasant fruits.
北風,吹來! 南風,吹來! 吹向我的花園,使它的清香四溢。願我的愛人進入他的花園,品嘗其中的佳果!
