雅歌 5
Chinese Union Version Modern Punctuation (Simplified)
新郎暂离新妇忧伤
5 我妹子，我新妇，我进了我的园中，采了我的没药和香料，吃了我的蜜房和蜂蜜，喝了我的酒和奶。我的朋友们，请吃！我所亲爱的，请喝，且多多地喝！
2 我身睡卧，我心却醒。这是我良人的声音！他敲门说：“我的妹子，我的佳偶，我的鸽子，我的完全人，求你给我开门，因我的头满了露水，我的头发被夜露滴湿。” 3 我回答说：“我脱了衣裳，怎能再穿上呢？我洗了脚，怎能再玷污呢？” 4 我的良人从门孔里伸进手来，我便因他动了心。 5 我起来要给我良人开门，我的两手滴下没药，我的指头有没药汁滴在门闩上。 6 我给我的良人开了门，我的良人却已转身走了。他说话的时候，我神不守舍。我寻找他，竟寻不见；我呼叫他，他却不回答。 7 城中巡逻看守的人遇见我，打了我，伤了我，看守城墙的人夺去我的披肩。 8 耶路撒冷的众女子啊，我嘱咐你们，若遇见我的良人，要告诉他，我因思爱成病。
9 你这女子中极美丽的，你的良人比别人的良人有何强处？你的良人比别人的良人有何强处，你就这样嘱咐我们？
新妇称誉新郎
10 我的良人白而且红，超乎万人之上。 11 他的头像至精的金子，他的头发厚密累垂，黑如乌鸦。 12 他的眼如溪水旁的鸽子眼，用奶洗净，安得合式。 13 他的两腮如香花畦，如香草台。他的嘴唇像百合花，且滴下没药汁。 14 他的两手好像金管，镶嵌水苍玉。他的身体如同雕刻的象牙，周围镶嵌蓝宝石。 15 他的腿好像白玉石柱，安在精金座上。他的形状如黎巴嫩，且佳美如香柏树。 16 他的口极其甘甜，他全然可爱。耶路撒冷的众女子啊，这是我的良人，这是我的朋友。
Song of Solomon 5
English Standard Version
He
5 I (A)came to my garden, my (B)sister, my bride,
I gathered my (C)myrrh with my spice,
I ate my (D)honeycomb with my honey,
I (E)drank my wine with my milk.
Others
Eat, (F)friends, drink,
and be drunk with love!
The Bride Searches for Her Beloved
She
2 I slept, but my heart was awake.
A sound! My beloved is (G)knocking.
“Open to me, my (H)sister, my (I)love,
my (J)dove, my (K)perfect one,
for my head is wet with dew,
my (L)locks with the drops of the night.”
3 (M)I had put off my garment;
how could I put it on?
I had (N)bathed my feet;
how could I soil them?
4 My beloved put his hand to the latch,
and my heart was thrilled within me.
5 I arose to open to my beloved,
and my hands dripped with myrrh,
my fingers with (O)liquid myrrh,
on the handles of the bolt.
6 I opened to my beloved,
but my beloved had turned and gone.
My soul failed me when he (P)spoke.
(Q)I sought him, but found him not;
(R)I called him, but he gave no answer.
7 (S)The watchmen found me
as they went about in the city;
they beat me, they bruised me,
they took away my veil,
those watchmen of the walls.
8 I (T)adjure you, O (U)daughters of Jerusalem,
if you find my beloved,
that you tell him
(V)I am sick with love.
Others
9 What is your beloved more than another beloved,
O (W)most beautiful among women?
What is your beloved more than another beloved,
that you thus (X)adjure us?
The Bride Praises Her Beloved
She
10 My beloved is radiant and (Y)ruddy,
(Z)distinguished among ten thousand.
11 His head is the finest gold;
(AA)his locks are wavy,
black as a raven.
12 His (AB)eyes are like doves
beside streams of water,
bathed in milk,
sitting beside a full pool.[a]
13 His (AC)cheeks are like (AD)beds of spices,
mounds of sweet-smelling herbs.
His lips are (AE)lilies,
dripping (AF)liquid myrrh.
14 His arms are rods of gold,
set with (AG)jewels.
His body is polished ivory,[b]
bedecked with (AH)sapphires.[c]
15 His legs are alabaster columns,
set on bases of gold.
His appearance is like (AI)Lebanon,
choice as the cedars.
16 His (AJ)mouth[d] is most sweet,
and he is altogether desirable.
This is my beloved and this is my friend,
O (AK)daughters of Jerusalem.
