Shir Hashirim 8:9-14 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

9. If she be a chomah (wall), we will build upon her a pinnacle of kesef; and if she be a delet (door), we will enclose her with panels of cedar.

10. I am a chomah (wall), and my breasts, like migdalot; then was I in his eyes like one that findeth shalom.

11. Sh'lomo had a kerem (vineyard) at Baal-Hamon; he gave over the kerem (vineyard) unto caretakers; each had to pay a thousand pieces of kesef for the p'ri (fruit) thereof.

12. My kerem (vineyard), which is mine, is at my own disposal [see 7:13 (12)]; thou, O Sh'lomo, the thousand are for thee, and two hundred for those that tend the p'ri thereof!

13. Thou that dwellest in the ganim (gardens), the chaverim are listening for thy voice; cause me to hear it.

14. Make haste, dodi (my beloved), and be thou like to a gazelle or a young deer upon the mountains where spices grow.
