Song of Solomon 4:2-4
Expanded Bible
2 Your teeth are like ·newly [L a flock of] sheared sheep
just coming from ·their bath [a washing; C white].
Each one has a twin,
and none of them is missing [C a compliment in an age before dentistry].
3 Your lips are like ·red silk [a scarlet] thread,
and your mouth is ·lovely [or desirable].
Your ·cheeks [or temple] behind your veil
are like slices of a pomegranate [C reddish orange].
4 Your neck is like David’s tower [C dignified; strong],
built ·with rows of stones [in courses].
A thousand shields hang on its walls [C a necklace that enhances her beauty];
each shield belongs to a ·strong soldier [hero].
