Song of Solomon 4:2-4
English Standard Version
2 Your (A)teeth are like a flock of shorn ewes
that have come up from the washing,
all of which bear twins,
and not one among them has lost its young.
3 Your lips are like (B)a scarlet thread,
and your mouth is (C)lovely.
Your (D)cheeks are like halves of a pomegranate
(E)behind your veil.
4 Your (F)neck is like the tower of David,
built in (G)rows of stone;[a]
on it (H)hang a thousand shields,
all of (I)them shields of warriors.
