Song of Solomon 8:9-11
American Standard Version

9 If she be a wall,
We will build upon her [a]a turret of silver:
And if she be a door,
We will inclose her with boards of cedar.

10 I [b]am a wall, and my breasts like the towers thereof
Then was I in his eyes as one that found peace.
11 Solomon had a vineyard at Baal-hamon;
He let out the vineyard unto keepers;
Every one for the fruit thereof was to bring a thousand pieces of silver.
