← Song of Solomon 8:10	Song of Solomon 8:11 (KJV)	Song of Solomon 8:12 →
I [am] a wall, and my breasts like towers: then was I in his eyes as one that found favour.	Solomon had a vineyard at Baalhamon; he let out the vineyard unto keepers; every one for the fruit thereof was to bring a thousand [pieces] of silver.	My vineyard, which [is] mine, [is] before me: thou, O Solomon, [must have] a thousand, and those that keep the fruit thereof two hundred.
