Song of Solomon 6:9

One alone, is my dove, my perfect one, one alone, was she to her mother, Pure, was she to her that bare her,—The daughters, have seen her, and pronounced her happy, Queens and concubines, and they have praised her. [****]

The Emphasised Bible by J. B. Rotherham

In The King James Version

My dove, my undefiled is but one; she is the only one of her mother, she is the choice one of her that bare her. The daughters saw her, and blessed her; yea, the queens and the concubines, and they praised her.

10[THEY] Who is this, that looketh forth like the dawn, beautiful as the moon, pure as the sun, majestic as bannered hosts?
