7 Look! Solomon's sedan chair! Sixty soldiers from the army of Israel surround it. 8 All of them are skilled in using swords, experienced in combat. Each one has his sword at his side and guards against the terrors of the night. 9 King Solomon had a carriage made for himself from the wood of Lebanon. 10 He had its posts made out of silver, its top out of gold, its seat out of purple fabric. Its inside-with inlaid scenes of love- was made by the young women of Jerusalem. 11 Young women of Zion, come out and look at King Solomon! Look at his crown, the crown his mother placed on him on his wedding day, his day of joyful delight. Song of Solomon 3:7-11, God's Word Translation. Copyright © 1995 by God's Word to the Nations.
