Awit ng mga Awit 8
Ang Biblia (1978)
Pagsasama ng kasintahang lalake at babae sa walang hanggang pagibig.
8 Oh ikaw sana'y naging aking kapatid,
Na humitit ng mga suso ng aking ina!
Pagka nasumpungan kita sa labas, hahagkan kita;
Oo, at walang hahamak sa akin.
2 Aking papatnubayan ka, at dadalhin kita sa bahay ng aking ina,
Na magtuturo sa akin;
Aking paiinumin ka ng hinaluang alak,
(A)Ng katas ng aking (B)granada.
3 Ang kaniyang kaliwang kamay ay (C)malalagay sa ilalim ng aking ulo,
At ang kaniyang kanang kamay ay yayakap sa akin.
4 Pinagbibilinan ko kayo, (D)Oh mga anak na babae ng Jerusalem,
Na huwag ninyong pukawin o gisingin man ang sinta ko,
Hanggang sa ibigin niya.
5 Sino itong (E)umaahong mula sa ilang,
Na humihilig sa kaniyang sinisinta?
Sa ilalim ng punong mansanas ay ginising kita:
Doon nagdamdam sa iyo ang iyong ina,
Doon nagdamdam yaong nanganak sa iyo.
6 Ilagay mo akong (F)pinakatatak sa iyong puso,
Pinakatatak sa iyong bisig:
Sapagka't ang pagsinta ay (G)malakas na parang kamatayan,
Panibugho ay (H)mabagsik na parang Sheol:
Ang mga liyab niyaon ay parang mga liyab ng apoy,
Isang pinaka liyab ng Panginoon.
7 Ang maraming tubig ay hindi makapapatay sa pagsinta,
Ni mapauurong man ng mga baha;
Kung ibigay ng lalake ang lahat na laman ng kaniyang bahay dahil sa pagsinta,
Siya'y lubos na kukutyain.
8 Tayo'y may isang munting kapatid na babae, (I)At siya'y walang mga suso:
Ano ang ating gagawin sa ating kapatid na babae
Sa araw na siya'y ipakikiusap?
9 Kung siya'y maging isang kuta,
Pagtatayuan natin siya ng moog na pilak:
At kung siya'y maging isang pintuan,
Ating tatakpan ng mga tablang sedro.
10 Ako'y isang kuta, at ang aking mga suso ay (J)parang mga moog niyaon:
Ako nga'y naging sa harap ng kaniyang mga mata ay parang nakakasumpong ng kapayapaan.
11 Si Salomon ay (K)may ubasan sa Baal-hamon;
(L)Kaniyang pinaupahan ang ubasan sa mga tagapamahala;
Bawa't isa'y nagdadala dahil sa bunga niyaon ng isang libong putol na pilak.
12 Ang aking ubasan na akin ay nasa harap ko;
Ikaw, Oh Salomon, ay magkakaroon ng libo,
At ang nangagiingat ng bunga niyaon ay dalawang daan.
13 Ikaw na tumatahan sa mga halamanan,
Ang mga kasama ay nangakikinig ng iyong tinig:
(M)Iparinig mo sa akin.
14 Ikaw ay magmadali, sinisinta ko,
At ikaw ay (N)maging parang usa o batang usa
Sa mga bundok ng mga especia.
Song of Solomon 8
King James Version
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; yea, I should not be despised.
2 I would lead thee, and bring thee into my mother's house, who 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 stir not up, nor awake my love, until he please.
5 Who is this that cometh up from the wilderness, leaning upon her beloved? I raised thee up under the apple tree: there thy mother brought thee forth: there she brought thee forth that bare thee.
6 Set me as a seal upon thine heart, as a seal upon thine arm: for love is strong as death; jealousy is cruel as the grave: the coals thereof are coals of fire, which hath a most vehement flame.
7 Many waters cannot quench love, neither can the floods drown it: if a man would give all the substance of his house for love, it would utterly be contemned.
8 We have a little sister, and she hath no breasts: what shall we do for our sister in the day when she shall be spoken for?
9 If she be a wall, we will build upon her a palace of silver: and if she be a door, we will inclose her with boards of cedar.
10 I am a wall, and my breasts like towers: then was I in his eyes as one that found favour.
11 Solomon had a vineyard at Baalhamon; he let out the vineyard unto keepers; every one for the fruit thereof was to bring a thousand pieces of silver.
12 My vineyard, which is mine, is before me: thou, O Solomon, must have a thousand, and those that keep the fruit thereof two hundred.
13 Thou that dwellest in the gardens, the companions hearken to thy voice: cause me to hear it.
14 Make haste, my beloved, and be thou like to a roe or to a young hart upon the mountains of spices.
Song of Solomon 8
New King James Version
Lovers Reunited at Their Country Home
8 Oh, that you were like my brother,
Who nursed at my mother’s breasts!
If I should find you outside,
I would kiss you;
I would not be despised.
2 I would lead you and bring you
Into the (A)house of my mother,
She who used to instruct me.
I would cause you to drink of (B)spiced wine,
Of the juice of my pomegranate.
(To the Daughters of Jerusalem)
3 (C)His left hand is under my head,
And his right hand embraces me.
4 (D)I charge you, O daughters of Jerusalem,
Do not stir up nor awaken love
Until it pleases.
Love Renewed in Lebanon
A Relative
5 (E)Who is this coming up from the wilderness,
Leaning upon her beloved?
I awakened you under the apple tree.
There your mother brought you forth;
There she who bore you brought you forth.
The Shulamite to Her Beloved
6 (F)Set me as a seal upon your heart,
As a seal upon your arm;
For love is as strong as death,
(G)Jealousy as [a]cruel as [b]the grave;
Its flames are flames of fire,
[c]A most vehement flame.
7 Many waters cannot quench love,
Nor can the floods drown it.
(H)If a man would give for love
All the wealth of his house,
It would be utterly despised.
The Shulamite’s Brothers
8 (I)We have a little sister,
And she has no breasts.
What shall we do for our sister
In the day when she is spoken for?
9 If she is a wall,
We will build upon her
A battlement of silver;
And if she is a door,
We will enclose her
With boards of cedar.
The Shulamite
10 I am a wall,
And my breasts like towers;
Then I became in his eyes
As one who found peace.
11 Solomon had a vineyard at Baal Hamon;
(J)He leased the vineyard to keepers;
Everyone was to bring for its fruit
A thousand silver coins.
(To Solomon)
12 My own vineyard is before me.
You, O Solomon, may have a thousand,
And those who tend its fruit two hundred.
The Beloved
13 You who dwell in the gardens,
The companions listen for your voice—
(K)Let me hear it!
The Shulamite

New International Version
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!
