Cantares 8
Nueva Biblia de las Américas
8 ¡Ah, si tú fueras como mi hermano,
Amamantado a los pechos de mi madre!
Si te encontrara afuera, te besaría,
Y no me despreciarían.
2 -»Te llevaría y te introduciría
En la casa de mi madre(A), que me enseñaba;
Te daría a beber vino sazonado del zumo de mis granadas.
3 -»Que esté su izquierda bajo mi cabeza
Y su derecha me abrace(B)».
EL ESPOSO:
4 ¶«Quiero que juren, oh hijas de Jerusalén;
Que no despertarán ni levantarán a mi amor,
Hasta que quiera(C)».
EL CORO:
5 ¶«¿Quién es esta que sube del desierto(D),
Recostada sobre su amado?».
EL ESPOSO:
«Debajo del manzano(E) te desperté;
Allí tu madre tuvo dolores de parto por ti,
Allí tuvo dolores de parto, y te dio a luz».
LA ESPOSA:
6 «Ponme como un sello sobre tu corazón,
Como un sello(F) sobre tu brazo,
Porque fuerte como la muerte es el amor,
Inexorables como el Seol[a], los celos(G);
Sus destellos, son destellos de fuego,
La llama misma del Señor.
7 -»Las muchas aguas no podrán extinguir el amor,
Ni los ríos lo apagarán.
Si el hombre diera todos los bienes de su casa por amor,
Solo lograría desprecio(H)».
EL CORO:
8 ¶«Tenemos una hermana pequeña,
Y todavía no tiene pechos(I);
¿Qué haremos por nuestra hermana
El día en que sea pedida?
9 -»Si ella es una muralla,
Edificaremos sobre ella un baluarte de plata;
Pero si es una puerta,
La reforzaremos con tablas de cedro(J)».
LA ESPOSA:
10 ¶«Yo soy una muralla, y mis pechos(K) como torres,
Entonces fui a sus ojos como quien halla la paz.
11 -»Salomón tenía una viña(L) en Baal Hamón,
Confió la viña(M) a los guardas(N);
Cada uno debía traer por su fruto mil(O) siclos (11.4 kilos) de plata(P).
12 -»Mi viña, que es mía, está a mi disposición;
Los mil siclos son para ti, Salomón,
Y doscientos, para los que guardan su fruto».
EL ESPOSO:
13 ¶«Oh tú, que moras en los huertos,
Mis compañeros(Q) están atentos a tu voz;
Déjame que la oiga(R)».
LA ESPOSA:
14 ¶«Apresúrate, amado mío,
Y sé como una gacela o un cervatillo(S)
Sobre los montes de los aromas(T)».

Song of Solomon 8
Jubilee Bible 2000
8 ¶ O that thou wert as my brother, that sucked the breasts of my mother! when I should find thee without, I would kiss thee; and I should not be despised.
2 I would lead thee and bring thee into my mother’s house, that thou would instruct me; I would cause thee to drink of spiced wine of the juice of my pomegranate.
3 His left hand should be under my head, and his right hand should embrace me.
4 I charge you, O daughters of Jerusalem, that ye not awake nor stir up love until he pleases.
5 ¶ Who is she that comes up from the wilderness, leaning upon her beloved? I woke thee up under the apple tree; there thy mother had birth pains; there she had pains that brought thee into the light.
6 Set me as a seal upon thine heart as a sign upon thine arm; for love is strong as death; jealousy is hard as Sheol; the coals thereof are coals of fire, which have a most vehement flame.
7 The many waters cannot quench love, neither can the rivers drown it; if a man would give all the substance of his house for this love, it would certainly be despised.
8 ¶ We have a little sister, and she still has no breasts; what shall we do for our sister in the day when she shall be spoken for?
9 If she is a wall, we will build upon her a palace of silver; and if she is a door, we will inclose her with boards of cedar.
10 I am a wall, and my breasts like towers since I was in his eyes as the one that found peace.
11 Solomon had a vineyard at Baalhamon; he let out the vineyard unto keepers; for its fruit each one was to bring a thousand pieces of silver.
12 My vineyard, which is mine, is before me; the thousand pieces shall be thine, O Solomon, and two hundred for those that keep the fruit.
13 ¶ Thou, she that dwellest in the gardens, the companions hearken to thy voice; cause me to hear it.
14 Run, my beloved, and be thou like to a roe or to a young hart upon the mountains of spices.

8 If only you were to me like a brother,
who was nursed at my mother’s breasts!
Then, if I found you outside,
I would kiss you,
and no one would despise me.
2 I would lead you
and bring you to my mother’s house(A)—
she who has taught me.
I would give you spiced wine to drink,
the nectar of my pomegranates.
3 His left arm is under my head
and his right arm embraces me.(B)
4 Daughters of Jerusalem, I charge you:
Do not arouse or awaken love
until it so desires.(C)
Friends
5 Who is this coming up from the wilderness(D)
leaning on her beloved?
She
Under the apple tree I roused you;
there your mother conceived(E) you,
there she who was in labor gave you birth.
6 Place me like a seal over your heart,
like a seal on your arm;
for love(F) is as strong as death,
its jealousy[a](G) unyielding as the grave.
It burns like blazing fire,
like a mighty flame.[b]
7 Many waters cannot quench love;
rivers cannot sweep it away.
If one were to give
all the wealth of one’s house for love,
it[c] would be utterly scorned.(H)
Friends
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?
9 If she is a wall,
we will build towers of silver on her.
If she is a door,
we will enclose her with panels of cedar.
She
10 I am a wall,
and my breasts are like towers.
Thus I have become in his eyes
like one bringing contentment.
11 Solomon had a vineyard(I) in Baal Hamon;
he let out his vineyard to tenants.
Each was to bring for its fruit
a thousand shekels[d](J) of silver.
12 But my own vineyard(K) is mine to give;
the thousand shekels are for you, Solomon,
and two hundred[e] are for those who tend its fruit.
He
13 You who dwell in the gardens
with friends in attendance,
let me hear your voice!
She
