Song of Solomon 4:3-5
New King James Version
3 Your lips are like a strand of scarlet,
And your mouth is lovely.
(A)Your temples behind your veil
Are like a piece of pomegranate.
4 (B)Your neck is like the tower of David,
Built (C)for an armory,
On which hang a thousand [a]bucklers,
All shields of mighty men.
5 (D)Your two breasts are like two fawns,
Twins of a gazelle,
Which feed among the lilies.
