Song of Solomon 8:11-13
Contemporary English Version
11 Solomon has a vineyard
at Baal-Hamon,
which he rents to others
for a thousand pieces
of silver each.
12 My vineyard is mine alone!
Solomon can keep his silver
and the others can keep
their share of the profits.
He Speaks:
13 You are in the garden
with friends all around.
Let me hear your voice!

the thousand shekels are for you, Solomon,
and two hundred[b] are for those who tend its fruit.

with friends in attendance,
