Song of Solomon 4:4-6
International Standard Version
Song of Solomon 4:4-6
International Standard Version
4 Your neck is like the tower of David,
built with rows of stones.
A thousand shields are hung upon it,
all the shields of the warriors.
5 Your two breasts are like two fawns,
twins of a gazelle grazing among the lilies.
6 Until the day breaks[a] and the shadows flee,
I’ll go to the mountain of myrrh[b]
and to the hill of frankincense.[c]
