Shir Hashirim 4:2-4
Orthodox Jewish Bible
2 Thy teeth are like an eder of sheep that are just shorn, coming up from washing; whereof every one is matched, and none is missing among them.
3 Thy lips are like a thread of scarlet, and thy mouth is naveh (lovely); thy temple is like a half-pomegranate within thy veil.
4 Thy tzavar (neck) is like the migdal Dovid girt with battlements, whereon there hang a thousand mogen [Dovid], all the shields of Gibborim.

New International Version
2 Your teeth are like a flock of sheep just shorn,
coming up from the washing.
Each has its twin;
not one of them is alone.(A)
3 Your lips are like a scarlet ribbon;
your mouth(B) is lovely.(C)
Your temples behind your veil
are like the halves of a pomegranate.(D)
4 Your neck is like the tower(E) of David,
built with courses of stone[a];
on it hang a thousand shields,(F)
all of them shields of warriors.
