11 Solomon owned a vineyard in Baal-hamon.(A)
He leased the vineyard to tenants.(B)
Each was to bring for his fruit
1,000 pieces of silver.(C)
12 I have my own vineyard.[a](D)
The 1,000 are for you, Solomon,
but 200 for those who guard its fruits.

13 M You[b] who dwell in the gardens—
companions(E) are listening for your voice—
let me hear you!(F)
