Ljóðaljóðin 5
Icelandic Bible
5 Ég kom í garð minn, systir mín, brúður, ég tíndi myrru mína og balsam. Ég át hunangsköku mína og hunangsseim, ég drakk vín mitt og mjólk. Etið, vinir, drekkið, gjörist ástdrukknir.
2 Ég sef, en hjarta mitt vakir, heyr, unnusti minn drepur á dyr! "Ljúk upp fyrir mér, systir mín, vina mín, dúfan mín, ljúfan mín! Því að höfuð mitt er alvott af dögg, hárlokkar mínir af dropum næturinnar."
3 "Ég er komin úr kyrtlinum, hvernig ætti ég að fara í hann aftur? Ég hefi laugað fæturna, hvernig ætti ég að óhreinka þá aftur?"
4 Unnusti minn rétti höndina inn um gluggann, og hjarta mitt svall honum á móti.
5 Ég reis á fætur til þess að ljúka upp fyrir unnusta mínum, og myrra draup af höndum mínum og fljótandi myrra af fingrum mínum á handfang slárinnar.
6 Ég lauk upp fyrir unnusta mínum, en unnusti minn var farinn, horfinn. Ég stóð á öndinni meðan hann talaði. Ég leitaði hans, en fann hann ekki, ég kallaði á hann, en hann svaraði ekki.
7 Verðirnir sem ganga um borgina, hittu mig, þeir slógu mig, þeir særðu mig, verðir múranna sviptu slæðunum af mér.
8 Ég særi yður, Jerúsalemdætur: Þegar þér finnið unnusta minn, hvað ætlið þér þá að segja honum? Að ég sé sjúk af ást!
9 Hvað hefir unnusti þinn fram yfir aðra unnusta, þú hin fegursta meðal kvenna? Hvað hefir unnusti þinn fram yfir aðra unnusta, úr því þú særir oss svo?
10 Unnusti minn er mjallahvítur og rauður, hann ber af tíu þúsundum.
11 Höfuð hans er skíragull, hinir hrynjandi hárlokkar hans hrafnsvartir,
12 augu hans eins og dúfur við vatnslæki, baðandi sig í mjólk, sett í umgjörð,
13 kinnar hans eins og balsambeð, er í vaxa kryddjurtir. Varir hans eru liljur, drjúpandi af fljótandi myrru.
14 Hendur hans eru gullkefli, sett krýsolítsteinum, kviður hans listaverk af fílabeini, lagt safírum.
15 Fótleggir hans eru marmarasúlur, sem hvíla á undirstöðum úr skíragulli, ásýndar er hann sem Líbanon, frábær eins og sedrustré.
16 Gómur hans er sætleikur, og allur er hann yndislegur. Þetta er unnusti minn og þetta er vinur minn, þér Jerúsalemdætur.

Song of Songs 5
New International Version
He
5 I have come into my garden,(A) my sister, my bride;(B)
I have gathered my myrrh with my spice.
I have eaten my honeycomb and my honey;
I have drunk my wine and my milk.(C)
Friends
Eat, friends, and drink;
drink your fill of love.
She
2 I slept but my heart was awake.
Listen! My beloved is knocking:
“Open to me, my sister, my darling,
my dove,(D) my flawless(E) one.(F)
My head is drenched with dew,
my hair with the dampness of the night.”
3 I have taken off my robe—
must I put it on again?
I have washed my feet—
must I soil them again?
4 My beloved thrust his hand through the latch-opening;
my heart began to pound for him.
5 I arose to open for my beloved,
and my hands dripped with myrrh,(G)
my fingers with flowing myrrh,
on the handles of the bolt.
6 I opened for my beloved,(H)
but my beloved had left; he was gone.(I)
My heart sank at his departure.[a]
I looked(J) for him but did not find him.
I called him but he did not answer.
7 The watchmen found me
as they made their rounds in the city.(K)
They beat me, they bruised me;
they took away my cloak,
those watchmen of the walls!
8 Daughters of Jerusalem, I charge you(L)—
if you find my beloved,(M)
what will you tell him?
Tell him I am faint with love.(N)
Friends
9 How is your beloved better than others,
most beautiful of women?(O)
How is your beloved better than others,
that you so charge us?
She
10 My beloved is radiant and ruddy,
outstanding among ten thousand.(P)
11 His head is purest gold;
his hair is wavy
and black as a raven.
12 His eyes are like doves(Q)
by the water streams,
washed in milk,(R)
mounted like jewels.
13 His cheeks(S) are like beds of spice(T)
yielding perfume.
His lips are like lilies(U)
dripping with myrrh.(V)
14 His arms are rods of gold
set with topaz.
His body is like polished ivory
decorated with lapis lazuli.(W)
15 His legs are pillars of marble
set on bases of pure gold.
His appearance is like Lebanon,(X)
choice as its cedars.
16 His mouth(Y) is sweetness itself;
he is altogether lovely.
This is my beloved,(Z) this is my friend,
daughters of Jerusalem.(AA)
