Woman

10 I am[a] a wall
and my breasts like towers.
So to him I have become
like one who finds[b] peace.[c]

11 Solomon owned a vineyard in Baal-hamon.(A)
He leased the vineyard to tenants.(B)
Each was to bring for his fruit
one thousand pieces of silver.(C)
12 I have my own vineyard.[d](D)
The one thousand are for you, Solomon,
but two hundred for those who take care of its fruits.
