Song of Songs 8:8 · Berean Standard Bible

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?

Context

6(5) Nilikuamsha chini ya mtofaa, huko mama yako alipotunga mimba yako, huko yeye alipata utungu akakuzaa. (6) Nitie kama muhuri moyoni mwako, kama muhuri kwenye mkono wako; kwa maana upendo una nguvu kama mauti, wivu wake ni mkatili kama kuzimu. Unachoma kama mwali wa moto, kama mwali mkubwa wa moto wa Bwana hasa. 7Maji mengi hayawezi kuuzimisha upendo, mito haiwezi kuugharikisha. Kama mtu angelitoa mali yote ya nyumbani mwake kwa ajili ya upendo, angelidharauliwa kabisa. 8Tunaye dada mdogo, matiti yake hayajakua bado. Tutafanya nini kwa ajili ya dada yetu wakati atakapokuja kuposwa? 9Kama yeye ni ukuta, tutajenga minara ya fedha juu yake. Na kama yeye ni mlango, tutamzungushia mbao za mierezi. 10Mimi ni ukuta, nayo matiti yangu ni kama minara. Ndivyo ambavyo nimekuwa machoni pake kama yule anayeleta utoshelevu.
