Cantares 3
La Palabra (España)
3 En mi cama, por la noche,
busqué al amor de mi vida,
lo busqué y no lo encontré.
2 Entonces me levanté
y recorrí la ciudad;
por las calles y las plazas
busqué al amor de mi vida,
lo busqué y no lo encontré.
3 Me descubrieron los guardias
que hacían ronda en la ciudad:
“¿Habéis visto vosotros
al amor de mi vida?”.
4 Y a poco de pasarlos
hallé al amor de mi vida;
lo agarré y no lo solté
hasta meterlo en casa de mi madre,
en la alcoba de la que me engendró.
Amado
5 Juradme, muchachas de Jerusalén,
por las gacelas y ciervas del campo,
que no despertaréis ni turbaréis
al amor hasta que él quiera.
Tercer cantar
Coro
6 ¿Qué es eso que sube del desierto
como columna de humo
con olor a incienso y mirra
y a mil aromas exóticos?
Amada
7 Esa es la litera de Salomón,
escoltada por sesenta valientes,
de lo más escogido de Israel:
8 todos van armados con espadas,
como expertos guerreros;
cada uno con su espada al flanco
ante amenazas nocturnas.
9 El rey Salomón se hizo un palanquín
con maderas del Líbano:
10 sus columnas son de plata,
su respaldo de oro,
sus asientos de púrpura
y su interior está decorado con amor
por las muchachas de Jerusalén.
11 Salid a admirar,
muchachas de Sión,
al rey Salomón
con la corona que le ciñó su madre
el día de su boda,
un día feliz para él.
Song of Solomon 3
Jubilee Bible 2000
3 ¶ By night on my bed I sought him whom my soul loves; I sought him, but I did not find him.
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 loves; I sought him, but I did not find him.
3 The watchmen that go about the city found me, to whom I said, Have ye seen him whom my soul loves?
4 It was but a little that I passed from them that I found him whom my soul loves: 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 brought me into the light.
5 I charge you, O ye virgins of Jerusalem, by the roes and by the hinds of the field, that ye not awake nor stir up love, until he pleases.
6 ¶ Who is she that rises out of the wilderness like pillars of smoke, perfumed with myrrh and frankincense and with all the aromatic powders?
7 ¶ Behold it is the bed of Solomon; sixty valiant men are about it of the valiant of Israel.
8 They all hold swords, being expert in war; each one has his sword upon his thigh because of the fears of the night.
9 King Solomon made himself a palanquin of the wood of Lebanon.
10 He made its pillars of silver, the bottom of it of gold, the covering of it of purple, its interior being paved with love, for the virgins of Jerusalem.
11 Go forth, O ye virgins of Zion, and behold King Solomon with the crown with which his mother crowned him in the day of his espousals, and in the day of the gladness of his heart.
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.
