Song of Solomon 4:3-5
The Voice
3 Your lips are as red as scarlet threads;
your mouth is beautiful.
Your cheeks rosy and round are beneath your veil,
like the halves of a pomegranate.
4 Your neck is elegant like the tower of David,
perfectly fit stone-by-stone.
There hang a thousand shields,
the shields of mighty men.
5 Your breasts are like two fawns,
twin gazelles grazing in a meadow of lilies.
Song of Songs 4:3-5
New International Version
3 Your lips are like a scarlet ribbon;
your mouth(A) is lovely.(B)
Your temples behind your veil
are like the halves of a pomegranate.(C)
4 Your neck is like the tower(D) of David,
built with courses of stone[a];
on it hang a thousand shields,(E)
all of them shields of warriors.
5 Your breasts(F) are like two fawns,
like twin fawns of a gazelle(G)
that browse among the lilies.(H)
