Song of Solomon 8:10-12
Lexham English Bible
10 I was a wall, and my breasts were like the towers,
so my betrothed viewed me with great delight.[a]
Solomon’s Vineyard and the Maiden’s Gift
11 Solomon had a vineyard[b] at Baal-hamon;
he entrusted his vineyard to the keepers;[c]
people paid a thousand silver pieces for its fruit.[d]
12 My own “vineyard” belongs to me;[e]
the “thousand” are for you, O Solomon,
and “two hundred” for those who tend its fruit.[f]
