Song of Songs 3:8-10
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
8 All of them expert with the sword,
skilled in battle,
Each with his sword at his side
against the terrors[a] of the night.
9 King Solomon made himself an enclosed litter
of wood from Lebanon.
10 He made its columns of silver,
its roof of gold,
Its seat of purple cloth,
its interior lovingly fitted.[b]
