Song of Solomon 1:5-6
International Children’s Bible
5 I’m dark but lovely,
women of Jerusalem.
I’m dark like the tents of Kedar,
like the curtains of Solomon.
6 Don’t look at how dark I am,
at how dark the sun has made me.
My brothers were angry with me.
They made me tend the vineyards.
So I haven’t tended my own vineyard!

daughters of Jerusalem,(B)
dark like the tents of Kedar,(C)
like the tent curtains of Solomon.[a]

because I am darkened by the sun.

and made me take care of the vineyards;(D)
my own vineyard I had to neglect.
