Song of Solomon 3:6-8

GOD’S WORD Translation

⁶ Who is this young woman coming up from the wilderness
like clouds of smoke?
She is perfumed with myrrh and incense
made from the merchants’ scented powders.
⁷ Look! Solomon’s sedan chair! ^[a]
Sixty soldiers from the army of Israel surround it.
⁸ All of them are skilled in using swords,
experienced in combat.
Each one has his sword at his side
and guards against the terrors of the night.
