Cantares 3
Reina-Valera 1995
La esposa sale en busca del esposo
3 Por las noches busqué en mi lecho
al amado de mi alma;
lo busqué, mas no lo hallé.
2 Pensé entonces:
«Me levantaré, recorreré la ciudad,
y por calles y plazas
buscaré al amado de mi alma.»
Lo busqué, mas no lo hallé.
3 Me hallaron los guardias que rondan la ciudad,
y les pregunté: «¿Habéis visto al amado de mi alma?»
4 Apenas me aparté de ellos un poco,
hallé al amado de mi alma;
me así a él, y no lo dejé
hasta llevarlo a casa de mi madre,
a la habitación de quien me dio a luz.
El esposo
5 ¡Yo os conjuro, hijas de Jerusalén,
por las gacelas y las ciervas del campo,
que no despertéis a mi amor!
¡Dejadla dormir mientras quiera!
El cortejo de bodas
Coro
6 ¿Qué es eso que sube del desierto
cual columna de humo,
perfumado de mirra e incienso,
y de todo polvo aromático?
7 ¡Ved, es la litera de Salomón!
Sesenta valientes la rodean,
de entre los fuertes de Israel.
8 Todos ciñen espada y son diestros en la guerra;
cada uno lleva su espada al cinto,
por los peligros de la noche.
9 El rey Salomón se hizo una carroza
de madera del Líbano,
10 con columnas de plata,
respaldo de oro
y asiento de grana;
su interior, recamado de amor
por las hijas de Jerusalén.
11 ¡Hijas de Sión, salid! Ved al rey Salomón
con la corona que le ciñó su madre
el día de su boda,
el día del gozo de su corazón.

3 Por las noches, sobre mi lecho,
busco al amor de mi vida;
lo busco y no lo hallo.
2 Me levanto, voy por la ciudad,
por sus calles y mercados,
buscando al amor de mi vida.
Lo busqué y no lo hallé.
3 Me encuentran los centinelas
mientras rondan la ciudad.
Les pregunto:
«¿Han visto ustedes al amor de mi vida?».
4 No bien los he dejado,
cuando encuentro al amor de mi vida.
Lo abrazo y, sin soltarlo,
lo llevo a la casa de mi madre,
a la alcoba donde ella me concibió.
El amado
5 Yo les ruego, doncellas de Jerusalén,
por las gacelas y cervatillas del bosque,
que no desvelen ni molesten a mi amada
hasta que ella quiera despertar.
Tercer Canto
El coro
6 ¿Qué es eso que sube por el desierto
semejante a una columna de humo,
entre aromas de mirra e incienso,
entre perfumes de mercaderes?
7 ¡Miren! ¡Es el carruaje de Salomón!
Viene escoltado por sesenta guerreros,
escogidos entre los más valientes de Israel.
8 Todos ellos portan espadas
y han sido adiestrados para el combate;
cada uno lleva la espada al cinto
por causa de los peligros de la noche.
9 Salomón mismo se hizo el carruaje
con finas maderas del Líbano.
10 Hizo de plata las columnas
y de oro los soportes.
El asiento lo tapizó de color púrpura
y su interior fue decorado con esmero
por las hijas de Jerusalén.
11 ¡Salgan, doncellas de Sión!
¡Contemplen al rey Salomón!
¡Lleva puesta la corona que le ciñó su madre
el día en que contrajo nupcias,
el día en que se alegró su corazón!

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.

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.

3 All night long on my bed
I looked(A) for the one my heart loves;
I looked for him but did not find him.
2 I will get up now and go about the city,
through its streets and squares;
I will search for the one my heart loves.
So I looked for him but did not find him.
3 The watchmen found me
as they made their rounds in the city.(B)
“Have you seen the one my heart loves?”
4 Scarcely had I passed them
when I found the one my heart loves.
I held him and would not let him go
till I had brought him to my mother’s house,(C)
to the room of the one who conceived me.(D)
5 Daughters of Jerusalem, I charge you(E)
by the gazelles and by the does of the field:
Do not arouse or awaken love
until it so desires.(F)
6 Who is this coming up from the wilderness(G)
like a column of smoke,
perfumed with myrrh(H) and incense
made from all the spices(I) of the merchant?
7 Look! It is Solomon’s carriage,
escorted by sixty warriors,(J)
the noblest of Israel,
8 all of them wearing the sword,
all experienced in battle,
each with his sword at his side,
prepared for the terrors of the night.(K)
9 King Solomon made for himself the carriage;
he made it of wood from Lebanon.
10 Its posts he made of silver,
its base of gold.
Its seat was upholstered with purple,
its interior inlaid with love.
Daughters of Jerusalem, 11 come out,
and look, you daughters of Zion.(L)
Look[a] on King Solomon wearing a crown,
the crown with which his mother crowned him
on the day of his wedding,
the day his heart rejoiced.(M)
