Song of Solomon 6:4-10

New American Standard Bible 1995

⁴ “^[a](A)You are as beautiful as ^(B)Tirzah, my darling,
As ^(C)lovely as ^(D)Jerusalem,
As ^(E)awesome as ^[b]an army with banners.
⁵ “Turn your eyes away from me,
For they have confused me;
^(F)Your hair is like a flock of goats
That have descended from Gilead.
⁶ “^(G)Your teeth are like a flock of ewes
Which have come up from their washing,
All of which bear twins,
And not one among them has ^[c]lost her young.
⁷ “^(H)Your temples are like a slice of a pomegranate
Behind your veil.
⁸ “There are sixty ^(I)queens and eighty concubines,
And ^[d](J)maidens without number;
⁹ But ^(K)my dove, my perfect one, is ^[e]unique:
She is her mother’s ^[f]only daughter;
She is the pure child of the one who bore her.
The ^[g](L)maidens saw her and called her blessed,
The ^(M)queens and the concubines also, and they praised her, saying,

¹⁰ ‘Who is this that ^[h]grows like the dawn,
As beautiful as the full ^(N)moon,
As pure ^(O)as the sun,
As ^(P)awesome as ^[i]an army with banners?’
