“Your teeth are like a flock of newly shorn sheep coming up from the washing; each has its twin, and not one of them is lost.”
Song of Solomon 4:2 (BSB)
Context Reading
1How beautiful you are, my darling — how very beautiful! Your eyes are like doves behind your veil. Your hair is like a flock of goats streaming down Mount Gilead. 2Your teeth are like a flock of newly shorn sheep coming up from the washing; each has its twin, and not one of them is lost. 3Your lips are like a scarlet ribbon, and your mouth is lovely. Your brow behind your veil is like a slice of pomegranate. 4Your neck is like the tower of David, built with rows of stones; on it hang a thousand shields, all of them shields of warriors.
