耶路撒冷的少女：
1絕色佳人啊，
你的良人去了何處？
你的良人轉往何方？
我們好幫你尋找他。
女子：
2我的良人下到自己的園中，
在香草花圃中牧放他的羊群，
採集百合花。
3我屬於我的良人，
我的良人也屬於我。
他在百合花間牧放羊群。
男子：
4我的愛人啊，
你像得撒一樣秀麗，
像耶路撒冷一樣佳美，
像旌旗飄揚的軍隊一樣威嚴。
5求你把視線移開吧，
因為你的眼波使我迷亂。
你的秀髮像從基列山坡下來的山羊群。
6你的牙齒如同一群從水裡洗淨上來的母羊，
成雙成對，
一顆也沒有脫落。
7你面紗後面的雙頰如兩瓣石榴。
8雖有六十個王后，
八十個妃嬪和無數的宮女，
9但我完美無瑕的小鴿子獨一無二，
她是她母親的獨女和最愛。
眾女子看見她都誇她有福，
王后和妃嬪見了也連連稱讚她，說：
10「這位燦爛似晨光，
皎潔如月亮，明媚如太陽，
亮麗如佈滿天際之星辰6·10 「佈滿天際之星辰」希伯來文是「威嚴如旌旗飄揚的軍隊」，希伯來人常把星星比作天上的軍隊。的是誰呢？」
11我下到核桃園中，
要看看谷中嫩綠的花木，
看看葡萄樹是否已發芽，
石榴樹是否正在開花。
12不知不覺，
我的心把我帶到我尊長的車上。
耶路撒冷的少女：
13回來吧，回來吧，
書拉密的少女！
回來吧，回來吧，
好讓我們再看看你！
男子：
你們為何目不轉睛地看著書拉密的少女，
好像觀看瑪哈念的舞蹈呢？

1Where has your beloved gone,
most beautiful of women?
Which way did your beloved turn,
that we may look for him with you?
She
2My beloved has gone down to his garden,
to the beds of spices,
to browse in the gardens
and to gather lilies.
3I am my beloved’s and my beloved is mine;
he browses among the lilies.
He
4You are as beautiful as Tirzah, my darling,
as lovely as Jerusalem,
as majestic as troops with banners.
5Turn your eyes from me;
they overwhelm me.
Your hair is like a flock of goats
descending from Gilead.
6Your teeth are like a flock of sheep
coming up from the washing.
Each has its twin,
not one of them is missing.
7Your temples behind your veil
are like the halves of a pomegranate.
8Sixty queens there may be,
and eighty concubines,
and virgins beyond number;
9but my dove, my perfect one, is unique,
the only daughter of her mother,
the favorite of the one who bore her.
The young women saw her and called her blessed;
the queens and concubines praised her.

10Who is this that appears like the dawn,
fair as the moon, bright as the sun,
majestic as the stars in procession?
He
11I went down to the grove of nut trees
to look at the new growth in the valley,
to see if the vines had budded
or the pomegranates were in bloom.
12Before I realized it,
my desire set me among the royal chariots of my people.6:12 Or among the chariots of Amminadab; or among the chariots of the people of the prince

13Come back, come back, O Shulammite;
come back, come back, that we may gaze on you!

Why would you gaze on the Shulammite
as on the dance of Mahanaim?6:13 In Hebrew texts this verse (6:13) is numbered 7:1.
