The Groom and His Party Approach | Song of Solomon 3

He made its posts of silver, its back of gold, its seat of purple; its interior was inlaid with love.

The Groom and His Party Approach

3:6    What is that coming up from the wilderness,

like a column of smoke,

perfumed with myrrh and frankincense,

with all the fragrant powders of the merchant?

7 Look, it is the litter of Solomon!

Around it are sixty mighty men

of the mighty men of Israel,

8 all equipped with swords

and expert in war,

each with his sword at his thigh

because of alarms by night.

9 King Solomon made himself a palanquin

from the wood of Lebanon.

10 He made its posts of silver,

its back of gold, its seat of purple;

its interior was inlaid with love.

Daughters of Jerusalem,

11 come out.

Look, O daughters of Zion,

at King Solomon,

at the crown with which his mother crowned him

on the day of his wedding,

on the day of the gladness of his heart.
