Song of Songs 4
New International Version
He
4 How beautiful you are, my darling!
Oh, how beautiful!
Your eyes behind your veil(A) are doves.(B)
Your hair is like a flock of goats
descending from the hills of Gilead.(C)
2 Your teeth are like a flock of sheep just shorn,
coming up from the washing.
Each has its twin;
not one of them is alone.(D)
3 Your lips are like a scarlet ribbon;
your mouth(E) is lovely.(F)
Your temples behind your veil
are like the halves of a pomegranate.(G)
4 Your neck is like the tower(H) of David,
built with courses of stone[a];
on it hang a thousand shields,(I)
all of them shields of warriors.
5 Your breasts(J) are like two fawns,
like twin fawns of a gazelle(K)
that browse among the lilies.(L)
6 Until the day breaks
and the shadows flee,(M)
I will go to the mountain of myrrh(N)
and to the hill of incense.
7 You are altogether beautiful,(O) my darling;
there is no flaw(P) in you.
8 Come with me from Lebanon, my bride,(Q)
come with me from Lebanon.
Descend from the crest of Amana,
from the top of Senir,(R) the summit of Hermon,(S)
from the lions’ dens
and the mountain haunts of leopards.
9 You have stolen my heart, my sister, my bride;(T)
you have stolen my heart
with one glance of your eyes,
with one jewel of your necklace.(U)
10 How delightful(V) is your love(W), my sister, my bride!
How much more pleasing is your love than wine,(X)
and the fragrance of your perfume(Y)
more than any spice!
11 Your lips drop sweetness as the honeycomb, my bride;
milk and honey are under your tongue.(Z)
The fragrance of your garments
is like the fragrance of Lebanon.(AA)
12 You are a garden(AB) locked up, my sister, my bride;(AC)
you are a spring enclosed, a sealed fountain.(AD)
13 Your plants are an orchard of pomegranates(AE)
with choice fruits,
with henna(AF) and nard,
14 nard and saffron,
calamus and cinnamon,(AG)
with every kind of incense tree,
with myrrh(AH) and aloes(AI)
and all the finest spices.(AJ)
15 You are[b] a garden(AK) fountain,(AL)
a well of flowing water
streaming down from Lebanon.

New King James Version
The Bridegroom Praises the Bride
The Beloved
4 Behold, (A)you are fair, my love!
Behold, you are fair!
You have dove’s eyes behind your veil.
Your hair is like a (B)flock of goats,
Going down from Mount Gilead.
2 (C)Your teeth are like a flock of shorn sheep
Which have come up from the washing,
Every one of which bears twins,
And none is [a]barren among them.
3 Your lips are like a strand of scarlet,
And your mouth is lovely.
(D)Your temples behind your veil
Are like a piece of pomegranate.
4 (E)Your neck is like the tower of David,
Built (F)for an armory,
On which hang a thousand [b]bucklers,
All shields of mighty men.
5 (G)Your two breasts are like two fawns,
Twins of a gazelle,
Which feed among the lilies.
6 (H)Until the day breaks
And the shadows flee away,
I will go my way to the mountain of myrrh
And to the hill of frankincense.
7 (I)You are all fair, my love,
And there is no spot in you.
8 Come with me from Lebanon, my spouse,
With me from Lebanon.
Look from the top of Amana,
From the top of Senir (J)and Hermon,
From the lions’ dens,
From the mountains of the leopards.
9 You have ravished my heart,
My sister, my spouse;
You have ravished my heart
With one look of your eyes,
With one link of your necklace.
10 How fair is your love,
My sister, my spouse!
(K)How much better than wine is your love,
And the [c]scent of your perfumes
Than all spices!
11 Your lips, O my spouse,
Drip as the honeycomb;
(L)Honey and milk are under your tongue;
And the fragrance of your garments
Is (M)like the fragrance of Lebanon.
12 A garden [d]enclosed
Is my sister, my spouse,
A spring shut up,
A fountain sealed.
13 Your plants are an orchard of pomegranates
With pleasant fruits,
Fragrant henna with spikenard,
14 Spikenard and saffron,
Calamus and cinnamon,
With all trees of frankincense,
Myrrh and aloes,
With all the chief spices—
15 A fountain of gardens,
A well of (N)living waters,
And streams from Lebanon.
The Shulamite
16 Awake, O north wind,
And come, O south!
Blow upon my garden,
That its spices may flow out.
(O)Let my beloved come to his garden
And eat its pleasant (P)fruits.

Песнь 4
Священное Писание (Восточный перевод), версия для Таджикистана
Песнь 4
Священное Писание (Восточный перевод), версия для Таджикистана
Он:
4 – Как прекрасна ты, милая моя,
как прекрасна!
Глаза твои за вуалью, словно голуби.
Твои волосы, как стадо чёрных коз,
что сходит с горы Галаад.
2 Зубы твои белы, как стадо выстриженных овец,
выходящих из купальни.
У каждого есть свой близнец,
никто из них не одинок.
3 Губы твои, словно алая лента,
уста твои прекрасны.
Щёки твои за вуалью – румяны,
как половинки граната.
4 Шея твоя, как башня Довуда,
изящно сложенная,
украшенная тысячью щитов,
все они – щиты воинов.
5 Груди твои, как два оленёнка,
как двойня газели,
что пасётся среди лилий.
6 Пока не наступил день
и не скрылись тени,
я пойду на гору мирровую
и на холм ладана.
7 Милая моя, ты вся прекрасна,
в тебе нет изъяна!
8 Пойдём со мной с Ливана, невеста моя,
со мной с Ливана.
Спустись с вершины Аманы,
с вершины Сенира и Хермона[a],
уйди от логовищ львов,
от горных убежищ барсов.
9 Ты похитила сердце моё, сестра[b] моя, невеста моя;
ты похитила сердце моё
одним взглядом своих очей,
одной лишь бусинкой своего ожерелья.
10 Как отрадна любовь твоя, сестра моя, невеста моя!
Насколько слаще вина любовь твоя,
и аромат благовоний твоих лучше всех ароматов!
11 Из уст твоих сочится сотовый мёд, невеста моя,
мёд и молоко под языком твоим.
Благоухание одежды твоей, как аромат ливанского кедра.
12 Ты запертый сад, сестра моя, невеста моя,
заключённый источник, запечатанный родник.
13 Ты – сад с гранатовыми деревьями,
с превосходными плодами,
с кипером и нардом[c];
14 нардом и шафраном,
с благовонным тростником и корицей,
с разными благовонными деревьями,
с миррой и алоэ[d] –
всякими лучшими ароматами.
15 Ты садовый родник,
источник свежей воды,
текущей с Ливанских гор.
Она:
16 – Пробудись, северный ветер,
и приди, южный,
подуй на сад мой
и разнеси аромат его!
Пусть возлюбленный мой придёт в сад свой
и вкусит плоды его превосходные.

4 M How beautiful you are, my darling.
How very beautiful!
Behind your veil,
your eyes are doves.(A)
Your hair is like a flock of goats
streaming down Mount Gilead.(B)
2 Your teeth are like a flock of newly shorn sheep
coming up from washing,
each one having a twin,
and not one missing.[a](C)
3 Your lips are like a scarlet cord,(D)
and your mouth[b] is lovely.
Behind your veil,
your brow[c] is like a slice of pomegranate.(E)
4 Your neck is like the tower of David,(F)
constructed in layers.
A thousand bucklers are hung on it—
all of them shields of warriors.[d]
5 Your breasts are like two fawns,
twins of a gazelle,(G) that feed among the lilies.
6 Before the day breaks[e]
and the shadows flee,(H)
I will make my way to the mountain of myrrh
and the hill of frankincense.(I)
7 You are absolutely beautiful,(J) my darling,
with no imperfection in you.
8 Come with me from Lebanon,[f](K) my bride(L)—
with me from Lebanon!
Descend from the peak of Amana,
from the summit of Senir and Hermon,(M)
from the dens of the lions,
from the mountains of the leopards.
9 You have captured my heart,(N) my sister,[g](O) my bride.
You have captured my heart with one glance of your eyes,
with one jewel of your necklace.
10 How delightful your love is, my sister, my bride.
Your love is much better than wine,(P)
and the fragrance of your perfume than any balsam.
11 Your lips drip sweetness like the honeycomb, my bride.(Q)
Honey and milk(R) are under your tongue.
The fragrance of your garments is like the fragrance of Lebanon.
12 My sister, my bride, you are a locked garden—
a locked garden[h] and a sealed spring.(S)
13 Your branches are a paradise[i] of pomegranates
with choicest fruits,(T)
henna with nard—
14 nard and saffron, calamus and cinnamon,(U)
with all the trees of frankincense,(V)
myrrh and aloes,(W)
with all the best spices.
15 You are a garden spring,
a well of flowing water(X)
streaming from Lebanon.
16 W Awaken,(Y) north wind—
come, south wind.
Blow on my garden,
and spread the fragrance of its spices.
Let my love come to his garden
and eat its choicest fruits.(Z)
