We have a little sister,
    and she has no breasts.
What shall we do for our sister,
    on the day when she is spoken for?(A)
If she is a wall,
    we will build upon her a battlement of silver,
but if she is a door,
    we will enclose her with boards of cedar.
10 I was a wall,
    and my breasts were like towers;
then I was in his eyes
    as one who brings[a] peace.

The Young Woman’s Brothers

We have a little sister
    too young to have breasts.

    we will protect her with a silver tower.
But if she is promiscuous, like a swinging door,
    we will block her door with a cedar bar.
