Song of Solomon 4:4-6
Holman Christian Standard Bible
4 Your neck is like the tower of David,(A)
constructed in layers.
A thousand bucklers are hung on it—
all of them shields of warriors.[a]
5 Your breasts are like two fawns,
twins of a gazelle,(B) that feed among the lilies.
6 Before the day breaks[b]
and the shadows flee,(C)
I will make my way to the mountain of myrrh
and the hill of frankincense.(D)
