Song of Solomon 4:4-6
New Living Translation
4 Your neck is as beautiful as the tower of David,
jeweled with the shields of a thousand heroes.
5 Your breasts are like two fawns,
twin fawns of a gazelle grazing among the lilies.
6 Before the dawn breezes blow
and the night shadows flee,
I will hurry to the mountain of myrrh
and to the hill of frankincense.
Song of Songs 4:4-6
New International Version
4 Your neck is like the tower(A) of David,
built with courses of stone[a];
on it hang a thousand shields,(B)
all of them shields of warriors.
5 Your breasts(C) are like two fawns,
like twin fawns of a gazelle(D)
that browse among the lilies.(E)
6 Until the day breaks
and the shadows flee,(F)
I will go to the mountain of myrrh(G)
and to the hill of incense.
