Song of Solomon 8:7-13

⁷Many waters are not able to quench love, nor can the rivers flood it away: if a man were to give all the wealth of his house for love, men would utterly despise him.—

⁸We have a little sister, and she hath yet no breasts: what shall we do for our sister on the day when she shall be spoken for?

⁹If she be a wall, we will build upon her a palace of silver: and if she be a door, we will enclose her with boards of cedar.—

¹⁰I am a wall, and my breasts are like towers: then was I in his eyes as one that found favor.

¹¹Solomon had a vineyard at Ba'al-hamon; he had given up the vineyard unto the keepers; every one was to bring for its fruit a thousand pieces of silver.

¹²My vineyard, which was mine, was before me: thine, O Solomon, be the thousand, and let two hundred be for those that keep its fruit.—

¹³“Thou that dwellest in the gardens, the companions listen for thy voice: oh let me hear it.”
