Awit ng mga Awit 3
Ang Dating Biblia (1905)
3 Sa kinagabihan sa aking higaan, ay hinahanap ko siya na sinisinta ng aking kaluluwa: aking hinanap siya, nguni't hindi ko siya nasumpungan.
2 Aking sinabi, ako'y babangon at liligid sa bayan, sa mga lansangan at sa mga maluwang na daan, aking hahanapin siya na sinisinta ng aking kaluluwa: aking hinanap siya, nguni't hindi ko siya nasumpungan.
3 Ang mga bantay na nagsisilibot sa bayan ay nasumpungan ako: na siya kong pinagsabihan, nakita baga ninyo siya na sinisinta ng aking kaluluwa?
4 Kaunti lamang ang inilagpas ko sa kanila. Nang masumpungan ko siya na sinisinta ng aking kaluluwa: pinigilan ko siya, at hindi ko binayaang umalis, hanggang sa siya'y aking nadala sa bahay ng aking ina, at sa silid niya na naglihi sa akin.
5 Pinagbibilinan ko kayo, Oh mga anak na babae ng Jerusalem, alangalang sa mga usang lalake at babae sa parang, na huwag ninyong pukawin o gisingin man ang aking sinta, hanggang sa ibigin niya.
6 Sino itong umaahong mula sa ilang na gaya ng mga haliging usok, na napapabanguhan ng mira at ng kamangyan, ng lahat na blanquete ng mangangalakal?
7 Narito, ito ang arag-arag ni Salomon; anim na pung makapangyarihang lalake ay nangasa palibot nito, sa mga makapangyarihang lalake ng Israel.
8 Silang lahat ay nagsisihawak ng tabak, at bihasa sa pakikidigma: bawa't isa'y may tabak sa kaniyang pigi, dahil sa takot kung gabi.
9 Ang haring Salomon ay gumawa para sa kaniya ng palankin na kahoy sa Libano,
10 Ginawa niya ang mga haligi niyaon na pilak, ang pinakailalim niyaon ay ginto, at ang upuan ay kulay ube, ang gitna niyaon ay nalalatagan ng pagsinta, na mula sa mga anak na babae ng Jerusalem.
11 Magsilabas kayo, Oh kayong mga anak na babae ng Sion, at inyong masdan ang haring Salomon, na may putong na ipinutong sa kaniya ng kaniyang ina, sa kaarawan ng kaniyang pagaasawa, at sa kaarawan ng kasayahan ng kaniyang puso.
Song of Solomon 3
King James Version
3 By night on my bed I sought him whom my soul loveth: I sought him, but I found him not.
2 I will rise now, and go about the city in the streets, and in the broad ways I will seek him whom my soul loveth: I sought him, but I found him not.
3 The watchmen that go about the city found me: to whom I said, Saw ye him whom my soul loveth?
4 It was but a little that I passed from them, but I found him whom my soul loveth: I held him, and would not let him go, until I had brought him into my mother's house, and into the chamber of her that conceived me.
5 I charge you, O ye daughters of Jerusalem, by the roes, and by the hinds of the field, that ye stir not up, nor awake my love, till he please.
6 Who is this that cometh out of the wilderness like pillars of smoke, perfumed with myrrh and frankincense, with all powders of the merchant?
7 Behold his bed, which is Solomon's; threescore valiant men are about it, of the valiant of Israel.
8 They all hold swords, being expert in war: every man hath his sword upon his thigh because of fear in the night.
9 King Solomon made himself a chariot of the wood of Lebanon.
10 He made the pillars thereof of silver, the bottom thereof of gold, the covering of it of purple, the midst thereof being paved with love, for the daughters of Jerusalem.
11 Go forth, O ye daughters of Zion, and behold king Solomon with the crown wherewith his mother crowned him in the day of his espousals, and in the day of the gladness of his heart.
Song of Solomon 3
New King James Version
A Troubled Night
The Shulamite
3 By (A)night on my bed I sought the one I love;
I sought him, but I did not find him.
2 “I will rise now,” I said,
“And go about the city;
In the streets and in the squares
I will seek the one I love.”
I sought him, but I did not find him.
3 (B)The watchmen who go about the city found me;
I said,
“Have you seen the one I love?”
4 Scarcely had I passed by them,
When I found the one I love.
I held him and would not let him go,
Until I had brought him to the (C)house of my mother,
And into the [a]chamber of her who conceived me.
5 (D)I [b]charge you, O daughters of Jerusalem,
By the gazelles or by the does of the field,
Do not stir up nor awaken love
Until it pleases.
The Coming of Solomon
The Shulamite
6 (E)Who is this coming out of the wilderness
Like pillars of smoke,
Perfumed with myrrh and frankincense,
With all the merchant’s fragrant powders?
7 Behold, it is Solomon’s couch,
With sixty valiant men around it,
Of the valiant of Israel.
8 They all hold swords,
Being expert in war.
Every man has his sword on his thigh
Because of fear in the night.
9 Of the wood of Lebanon
Solomon the King
Made himself a [c]palanquin:
10 He made its pillars of silver,
Its support of gold,
Its seat of purple,
Its interior paved with love
By the daughters of Jerusalem.
11 Go forth, O daughters of Zion,
And see King Solomon with the crown
With which his mother crowned him
On the day of his wedding,
The day of the gladness of his heart.
