Song of Solomon 8:10-12
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised
10 I was a wall,
and my breasts were like towers;
then I was in his eyes
as one who brings[a] peace.
11 Solomon had a vineyard at Baal-hamon;
he entrusted the vineyard to keepers;
each one was to bring for its fruit a thousand pieces of silver.
12 My vineyard, my very own, is for myself;
you, O Solomon, may have the thousand,
and the keepers of the fruit two hundred!

10 I am a wall,
and my breasts are like towers.
Thus I have become in his eyes
like one bringing contentment.

he let out his vineyard to tenants.
Each was to bring for its fruit

the thousand shekels are for you, Solomon,
and two hundred[b] are for those who tend its fruit.
