Song of Solomon 6:4-10
1599 Geneva Bible
4 [a]Turn away thine eyes from me: for they overcome me: (A)thine hair is like a flock of goats, which look down from Gilead.
5 Thy teeth are like a flock of sheep, which go up from the washing, which every one bring out twins, and none is barren among them.
6 Thy temples are within thy locks as a piece of a pomegranate.
7 There are [b]threescore Queens, and fourscore concubines, and of the damsels without number.
8 But my dove is alone, and my undefiled, she is the only daughter of her mother, and she is dear to her that bare her: the daughters have seen her, and counted her blessed: even the Queens and the concubines, and they have praised her.
9 [c]Who is she that looketh forth as the morning, fair as the moon, pure as the sun, terrible as an army with banners!
10 I went down to the [d]garden of nuts, to see the fruits of the valley, to see if the vine budded, and if the pomegranates flourished.

New International Version
He
4 You are as beautiful as Tirzah,(A) my darling,
as lovely as Jerusalem,(B)
as majestic as troops with banners.(C)
5 Turn your eyes from me;
they overwhelm me.
Your hair is like a flock of goats
descending from Gilead.(D)
6 Your teeth are like a flock of sheep
coming up from the washing.
Each has its twin,
not one of them is missing.(E)
7 Your temples behind your veil(F)
are like the halves of a pomegranate.(G)
8 Sixty queens(H) there may be,
and eighty concubines,(I)
and virgins beyond number;
9 but my dove,(J) my perfect one,(K) is unique,
the only daughter of her mother,
the favorite of the one who bore her.(L)
The young women saw her and called her blessed;
the queens and concubines praised her.
Friends
10 Who is this that appears like the dawn,
fair as the moon, bright as the sun,
majestic as the stars in procession?
