8:1

Quis mihi det te fratrem meum, sugentem ubera matris meae, ut inveniam te foris, et deosculer te, et jam me nemo despiciat ?

Oh that you were like my brother, who nursed from the breasts of my mother! If I found you outside, I would kiss you; yes, and no one would despise me.

巴不得你像我的兄弟，像吃我母親奶的兄弟；我在外頭遇見你就與你親嘴，誰也不輕看我。

8:2

Apprehendam te, et ducam in domum matris meae : ibi me docebis, et dabo tibi poculum ex vino condito, et mustum malorum granatorum meorum.

I would lead you, bringing you into the house of my mother, who would instruct me. I would have you drink spiced wine, of the juice of my pomegranate.

我必引導你，領你進我母親的家；我可以領受教訓，也就使你喝石榴汁釀的香酒。

8:3

Laeva ejus sub capite meo, et dextera illius amplexabitur me.

His left hand would be under my head. His right hand would embrace me.

他的左手必在我頭下；他的右手必將我抱住。

8:4

Adjuro vos, filiae Jerusalem, ne suscitetis, neque evigilare faciatis dilectam, donec ipsa velit.

I adjure you, daughters of Jerusalem, that you not stir up, nor awaken love, until it so desires.

耶路撒冷的眾女子啊，我囑咐你們：不要驚動、不要叫醒我所親愛的，等他自己情願。

8:5

Quae est ista quae ascendit de deserto, deliciis affluens, innixa super dilectum suum ? Sub arbore malo suscitavi te ; ibi corrupta est mater tua, ibi violata est genitrix tua.

Who is this who comes up from the wilderness, leaning on her beloved? Beloved Under the apple tree I awakened you. There your mother conceived you. There she was in labor and bore you.

那靠着良人從曠野上來的是誰呢？〔新娘〕我在蘋果樹下叫醒你。你母親在那裏為你劬勞；生養你的在那裏為你劬勞。

8:6

Pone me ut signaculum super cor tuum, ut signaculum super brachium tuum, quia fortis est ut mors dilectio, dura sicut infernus aemulatio : lampades ejus lampades ignis atque flammarum.

Set me as a seal on your heart, as a seal on your arm; for love is strong as death. Jealousy is as cruel as Sheol. Its flashes are flashes of fire, a very flame of Yah.

求你將我放在你心上如印記，帶在你臂上如戳記。因為愛情如死之堅強，嫉恨如陰間之殘忍；所發的電光是火焰的電光，是耶和華的烈焰。

8:7

Aquae multae non potuerunt extinguere caritatem, nec flumina obruent illam. Si dederit homo omnem substantiam domus suae pro dilectione, quasi nihil despiciet eam.

Many waters can’t quench love, neither can floods drown it. If a man would give all the wealth of his house for love, he would be utterly scorned.

愛情，眾水不能熄滅，大水也不能淹沒。若有人拿家中所有的財寶要換愛情，就全被藐視。

8:8

Soror nostra parva, et ubera non habet ; quid faciemus sorori nostrae in die quando alloquenda est ?

We have a little sister. She has no breasts. What shall we do for our sister in the day when she is to be spoken for?

我們有一小妹；她的兩乳尚未長成，人來提親的日子，我們當為她怎樣辦理？

8:9

Si murus est, aedificemus super eum propugnacula argentea ; si ostium est, compingamus illud tabulis cedrinis.

If she is a wall, we will build on her a turret of silver. If she is a door, we will enclose her with boards of cedar.

她若是牆，我們要在其上建造銀塔；她若是門，我們要用香柏木板圍護她。
