Song of Solomon 8

1 O that you were to me like a brother who nursed at my mother’s breasts! If I found you outdoors, I would kiss you, and no one would despise me.

1 如果你是我的同胞兄弟就好了。 这样，在外头遇见你， 我也可以亲吻你， 没有人会取笑我。

2 I would lead you and bring you to the house of my mother who taught me. I would give you spiced wine to drink, the nectar of my pomegranates.

2 我可以把你带进教养我的母亲家。 我要给你喝石榴汁酿的醇酒。

3 His left hand is under my head, and his right arm embraces me.

3 他的左手扶着我的头， 他的右手紧抱着我。

4 O daughters of Jerusalem, I adjure you: Do not arouse or awaken love until the time is right.

4 耶路撒冷的少女啊， 我吩咐你们， 不要叫醒或惊动爱情， 等它自发吧。

5 Who is this coming up from the wilderness, leaning on her beloved? I roused you under the apple tree; there your mother conceived you; there she travailed and brought you forth.

5 那从旷野上来、靠在良人身旁的是谁呢？ 我在苹果树下唤醒你， 你母亲在那里怀你养你， 为你受生产之苦。

6 Set me as a seal over your heart, as a seal upon your arm. For love is as strong as death, its jealousy as unrelenting as Sheol. Its sparks are fiery flames, the fiercest blaze of all.

6 请把我印在你的心上， 刻在你的手臂上， 因为爱情如死亡一般坚固， 嫉妒像阴间一样残酷， 它燃起的火焰是烧灭一切的烈火。

7 Mighty waters cannot quench love; rivers cannot sweep it away. If a man were to give all the wealth of his house for love, his offer would be utterly scorned.

7 爱情，大水不能熄灭， 江河不能淹没。 若有人想倾其家财买爱情， 必遭唾弃。

8 We have a little sister, and her breasts are not yet grown. What shall we do for our sister on the day she is spoken for?

8 我们有一个小妹， 她的胸还没有发育。 若有人来提亲， 我们该怎么办？

9 If she is a wall, we will build a tower of silver upon her. If she is a door, we will enclose her with panels of cedar.

9 她若是墙， 我们要在上面建造银塔； 她若是门， 我们要用香柏木板围护她。

10 I am a wall, and my breasts are like towers. So I have become in his eyes like one who brings peace.

10 我是一面墙， 我的双乳像城楼， 我在他眼中像找到平安的人。

11 Solomon had a vineyard in Baal-hamon. He leased it to the tenants. For its fruit, each was to bring a thousand shekels of silver.

11 所罗门在巴力·哈们有一个葡萄园， 他把葡萄园租给看守的人， 租金是每人一千块银子。

12 But my own vineyard is mine to give; the thousand shekels are for you, O Solomon, and two hundred are for those who tend its fruit.

12 我的葡萄园，我自己作主。 所罗门啊，你的一千块银子自己留着， 二百块银子给管果园的人。

13 You who dwell in the gardens, my companions are listening for your voice. Let me hear it!

13 你这住在园中的人啊， 同伴们都在聆听你的声音， 求你让我也听见吧！

14 Come away, my beloved, and be like a gazelle or a young stag on the mountains of spices.

14 我的良人啊， 愿你像香草山上的羚羊和小鹿， 快快来到我身边！
