Song of Solomon 8:9-11

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

⁹If she is a wall,
    we will build upon her a battlement of silver;
but if she is a door,
    we will enclose her with boards of cedar.
¹⁰I was a wall,
    and my breasts were like towers;
then I was in his eyes
    as one who brings^[a] peace.

¹¹Solomon had a vineyard at Ba′al-ha′mon;
he let out the vineyard to keepers;
each one was to bring for its fruit a thousand pieces of silver.
