Song of Solomon 3:6-8
New Century Version
6 Who is this coming out of the desert
like a cloud of smoke?
Who is this that smells like myrrh, incense,
and other spices?
7 Look, it’s Solomon’s couch[a]
with sixty soldiers around it,
the finest soldiers of Israel.
8 These soldiers all carry swords
and have been trained in war.
Every man wears a sword at his side
and is ready for the dangers of the night.
Footnotes
- 3:7 couch Something like a bed carried by slaves on which the king lay or sat while traveling.
