Law History Wisdom Prophets Gospels Acts Epistles Apocalyptic
1 As a lily among the thorns, | 1 אֲנִי֙ חֲבַצֶּ֣לֶת הַשָּׁרֹ֔ון שֹֽׁושַׁנַּ֖ת הָעֲמָקִֽים׃ | |||
2 So `is' my friend among the daughters! | 2 כְּשֹֽׁושַׁנָּה֙ בֵּ֣ין הַחֹוחִ֔ים כֵּ֥ן רַעְיָתִ֖י בֵּ֥ין הַבָּנֹֽות׃ | |||
3 As a citron among trees of the forest, So `is' my beloved among the sons, In his shade I delighted, and sat down, And his fruit `is' sweet to my palate. | 3 כְּתַפּ֙וּחַ֙ בַּעֲצֵ֣י הַיַּ֔עַר כֵּ֥ן דֹּודִ֖י בֵּ֣ין הַבָּנִ֑ים בְּצִלֹּו֙ חִמַּ֣דְתִּי וְיָשַׁ֔בְתִּי וּפִרְיֹ֖ו מָתֹ֥וק לְחִכִּֽי׃ | |||
4 He hath brought me in unto a house of wine, And his banner over me `is' love, | 4 הֱבִיאַ֙נִי֙ אֶל־בֵּ֣ית הַיָּ֔יִן וְדִגְלֹ֥ו עָלַ֖י אַהֲבָֽה׃ | |||
5 Sustain me with grape-cakes, Support me with citrons, for I `am' sick with love. | 5 סַמְּכ֙וּנִי֙ בָּֽאֲשִׁישֹׁ֔ות רַפְּד֖וּנִי בַּתַּפּוּחִ֑ים כִּי־חֹולַ֥ת אַהֲבָ֖ה אָֽנִי׃ | |||
6 His left hand `is' under my head, And his right doth embrace me. | 6 שְׂמֹאלֹו֙ תַּ֣חַת לְרֹאשִׁ֔י וִימִינֹ֖ו תְּחַבְּקֵֽנִי׃ | |||
7 I have adjured you, daughters of Jerusalem, By the roes or by the hinds of the field, Stir not up nor wake the love till she please! | 7 הִשְׁבַּ֨עְתִּי אֶתְכֶ֜ם בְּנֹ֤ות יְרוּשָׁלִַ֙ם֙ בִּצְבָאֹ֔ות אֹ֖ו בְּאַיְלֹ֣ות הַשָּׂדֶ֑ה אִם־תָּעִ֧ירוּ׀ וְֽאִם־תְּעֹֽורְר֛וּ אֶת־הָאַהֲבָ֖ה עַ֥ד שֶׁתֶּחְפָּֽץ׃ | |||
8 The voice of my beloved! lo, this -- he is coming, Leaping on the mountains, skipping on the hills. | 8 קֹ֣ול דֹּודִ֔י הִנֵּה־זֶ֖ה בָּ֑א מְדַלֵּג֙ עַל־הֶ֣הָרִ֔ים מְקַפֵּ֖ץ עַל־הַגְּבָעֹֽות׃ | |||
9 My beloved `is' like to a roe, Or to a young one of the harts. Lo, this -- he is standing behind our wall, Looking from the windows, Blooming from the lattice. | 9 דֹּומֶ֤ה דֹודִי֙ לִצְבִ֔י אֹ֖ו לְעֹ֣פֶר הָֽאַיָּלִ֑ים הִנֵּה־זֶ֤ה עֹומֵד֙ אַחַ֣ר כָּתְלֵ֔נוּ מַשְׁגִּ֙יחַ֙ מִן־הַֽחֲלֹּנֹ֔ות מֵצִ֖יץ מִן־הַֽחֲרַכִּֽים׃ | |||
10 My beloved hath answered and said to me, `Rise up, my friend, my fair one, and come away, | 10 עָנָ֥ה דֹודִ֖י וְאָ֣מַר לִ֑י ק֥וּמִי לָ֛ךְ רַעְיָתִ֥י יָפָתִ֖י וּלְכִי־לָֽךְ׃ | |||
11 For lo, the winter hath passed by, The rain hath passed away -- it hath gone. | 11 כִּֽי־הִנֵּ֥ה הַסְּתָו הַסְּתָ֖יו עָבָ֑ר הַגֶּ֕שֶׁם חָלַ֖ף הָלַ֥ךְ לֹֽו׃ | |||
12 The flowers have appeared in the earth, The time of the singing hath come, And the voice of the turtle was heard in our land, | 12 הַנִּצָּנִים֙ נִרְא֣וּ בָאָ֔רֶץ עֵ֥ת הַזָּמִ֖יר הִגִּ֑יעַ וְקֹ֥ול הַתֹּ֖ור נִשְׁמַ֥ע בְּאַרְצֵֽנוּ׃ | |||
13 The fig-tree hath ripened her green figs, And the sweet-smelling vines have given forth fragrance, Rise, come, my friend, my fair one, yea, come away. | 13 הַתְּאֵנָה֙ חָֽנְטָ֣ה פַגֶּ֔יהָ וְהַגְּפָנִ֥ים׀ סְמָדַ֖ר נָ֣תְנוּ רֵ֑יחַ ק֥וּמִי לְכִי לָ֛ךְ רַעְיָתִ֥י יָפָתִ֖י וּלְכִי־לָֽךְ׃ | |||
14 My dove, in clefts of the rock, In a secret place of the ascent, Cause me to see thine appearance, Cause me to hear thy voice, For thy voice `is' sweet, and thy appearance comely. | 14 יֹונָתִ֞י בְּחַגְוֵ֣י הַסֶּ֗לַע בְּסֵ֙תֶר֙ הַמַּדְרֵגָ֔ה הַרְאִ֙ינִי֙ אֶת־מַרְאַ֔יִךְ הַשְׁמִיעִ֖ינִי אֶת־קֹולֵ֑ךְ כִּי־קֹולֵ֥ךְ עָרֵ֖ב וּמַרְאֵ֥יךְ נָאוֶֽה׃ | |||
15 Seize ye for us foxes, Little foxes -- destroyers of vineyards, Even our sweet-smelling vineyards. | 15 אֶֽחֱזוּ־לָ֙נוּ֙ שֽׁוּעָלִ֔ים שֽׁוּעָלִ֥ים קְטַנִּ֖ים מְחַבְּלִ֣ים כְּרָמִ֑ים וּכְרָמֵ֖ינוּ סְמָדַֽר׃ | |||
16 My beloved `is' mine, and I `am' his, Who is delighting among the lilies, | 16 דֹּודִ֥י לִי֙ וַאֲנִ֣י לֹ֔ו הָרֹעֶ֖ה בַּשֹּׁושַׁנִּֽים׃ | |||
17 Till the day doth break forth, And the shadows have fled away, Turn, be like, my beloved, To a roe, or to a young one of the harts, On the mountains of separation! | 17 עַ֤ד שֶׁיָּפ֙וּחַ֙ הַיֹּ֔ום וְנָ֖סוּ הַצְּלָלִ֑ים סֹב֩ דְּמֵה־לְךָ֙ דֹודִ֜י לִצְבִ֗י אֹ֛ו לְעֹ֥פֶר הָאַיָּלִ֖ים עַל־הָ֥רֵי בָֽתֶר׃ | |||
