Song of Songs 6:4-8
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;
Song of Solomon 6:4-8
King James Version
4 Thou art beautiful, O my love, as Tirzah, comely as Jerusalem, terrible as an army with banners.
5 Turn away thine eyes from me, for they have overcome me: thy hair is as a flock of goats that appear from Gilead.
6 Thy teeth are as a flock of sheep which go up from the washing, whereof every one beareth twins, and there is not one barren among them.
7 As a piece of a pomegranate are thy temples within thy locks.
8 There are threescore queens, and fourscore concubines, and virgins without number.

New King James Version
Praise of the Shulamite’s Beauty
The Beloved
4 O my love, you are as beautiful as Tirzah,
Lovely as Jerusalem,
Awesome as an army with banners!
5 Turn your eyes away from me,
For they have [a]overcome me.
Your hair is (A)like a flock of goats
Going down from Gilead.
6 (B)Your teeth are like a flock of sheep
Which have come up from the washing;
Every one bears twins,
And none is [b]barren among them.
7 (C)Like a piece of pomegranate
Are your temples behind your veil.
8 There are sixty queens
And eighty concubines,
And (D)virgins without number.
