Song of Solomon 6:4–10

Man

4 You are as beautiful as Tirzah, my darling,

lovely as Jerusalem,

awe-inspiring as an army with banners.z

5 Turn your eyes away from me,

for they captivate me.aa

Your hair is like a flock of goats

streaming down from Gilead.ab

6 Your teeth are like a flock of ewes

coming up from washing,

each one having a twin,

and not one missing.I,ac

7 Behind your veil,ad

your browJ is like a slice of pomegranate.

8 There are sixty queens

and eighty concubinesae

and young women* without number.

9 But my dove,a my virtuous one, is unique;b

she is the favorite of her mother,

perfect to the one who gave her birth.

Women see her and declare her fortunate;c

queens and concubines also, and they sing her praises:

10 Who is thisd who shines like the dawn,

as beautiful as the moon,

bright as the sun,

awe-inspiring as an army with banners?e
