10 W I am[a] a wall
and my breasts like towers.
So in his eyes I have become
like one who finds peace.[b]

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.[c](D)
The 1,000 are for you, Solomon,
but 200 for those who guard its fruits.
