Canticle of Canticles 3

KING JAMES BIBLE	NOVA VULGATA
1 By night on my bed I sought him whom my soul loveth: I sought him, but I found him not.	1 In lectulo meo per noctes quaesivi, quem diligit anima mea; quaesivi illum et non inveni.
2 I will rise now, and go about the city in the streets, and in the broad ways I will seek him whom my soul loveth: I sought him, but I found him not.	2 “ Surgam et circuibo civitatem; per vicos et plateas quaeram, quem diligit anima mea”. Quaesivi illum et non inveni.
3 The watchmen that go about the city found me: to whom I said, Saw ye him whom my soul loveth?	3 Invenerunt me vigiles, qui circumeunt civitatem: “ Num, quem diligit anima mea, vidistis? ”.
4 It was but a little that I passed from them, but I found him whom my soul loveth: I held him, and would not let him go, until I had brought him into my mother's house, and into the chamber of her that conceived me.	4 Paululum cum pertransissem eos, inveni, quem diligit anima mea; tenui eum nec dimittam, donec introducam illum in domum matris meae et in cubiculum genetricis meae.
5 I charge you, O ye daughters of Jerusalem, by the roes, and by the hinds of the field, that ye stir not up, nor awake my love, till he please.	5 Adiuro vos, filiae Ierusalem, per capreas cervasque camporum, ne suscitetis neque evigilare faciatis dilectam, donec ipsa velit.
6 Who is this that cometh out of the wilderness like pillars of smoke, perfumed with myrrh and frankincense, with all powders of the merchant?	6 Quid hoc, quod ascendit per desertum sicut virgula fumi, aromatizans tus et myrrham et universum pulverem pigmentarii?
7 Behold his bed, which is Solomon's; threescore valiant men are about it, of the valiant of Israel.	7 En lectulum Salomonis. Sexaginta fortes ambiunt illum ex fortissimis Israel,
8 They all hold swords, being expert in war: every man hath his sword upon his thigh because of fear in the night.	8 omnes tenentes gladios et ad bella doctissimi, uniuscuiusque ensis super femur suum propter timores nocturnos.
9 King Solomon made himself a chariot of the wood of Lebanon.	9 Ferculum fecit sibi rex Salomon de lignis Libani;
10 He made the pillars thereof of silver, the bottom thereof of gold, the covering of it of purple, the midst thereof being paved with love, for the daughters of Jerusalem.	10 columnas eius fecit argenteas, reclinatorium aureum, sedile purpureum: medium eius stratum ebeneum. Filiae Ierusalem,
11 Go forth, O ye daughters of Zion, and behold king Solomon with the crown wherewith his mother crowned him in the day of his espousals, and in the day of the gladness of his heart.	11 egredimini et videte, filiae Sion, regem Salomonem in diademate, quo coronavit illum mater sua in die desponsationis illius et in die laetitiae cordis eius.
