Song of Solomon 1:5-6

International Children’s Bible

⁵ I’m dark but lovely,
    women of Jerusalem.
    I’m dark like the tents of Kedar,
    like the curtains of Solomon.
⁶ Don’t look at how dark I am,
    at how dark the sun has made me.
My brothers were angry with me.
    They made me tend the vineyards.
    So I haven’t tended my own vineyard!
