Song of Songs 8:9
Berean Standard Bible
If she is a wall, we will build a tower of silver to protect her. If she is a door, we will enclose her with panels of cedar.
Context
7Mighty waters cannot quench love;
rivers cannot sweep it away.
If a man were to give all the wealth of his house for love,
his offer would be utterly scorned. 8We have a little sister,
and her breasts are not yet grown.
What shall we do for our sister
on the day she is spoken for? 9If she is a wall,
we will build a tower of silver to protect her.
If she is a door,
we will enclose her with panels of cedar. 10I am a wall,
and my breasts are like towers.
So I have become in his eyes
like one who brings peace. 11Solomon had a vineyard in Baal-hamon.
He leased it to the tenants.
For its fruit, each was to bring
a thousand shekels of silver.*
