6 Who is this sweeping in from the wildernesslike a cloud of smoke?Who is it, fragrant with myrrh and frankincenseand every kind of spice?
7 Look, it is Solomon’s carriage,surrounded by sixty heroic men,the best of Israel’s soldiers.
8 They are all skilled swordsmen,experienced warriors.Each wears a sword on his thigh,ready to defend the king against an attack in the night.
9 King Solomon’s carriage is builtof wood imported from Lebanon.
10 Its posts are silver,its canopy gold;its cushions are purple.It was decorated with loveby the young women of Jerusalem.
11 Come out to see King Solomon,young women of Jerusalem.He wears the crown his mother gave him on his wedding day,his most joyous day.
