Song of Solomon 7:4

Thy neck as a tower of the ivory, Thine eyes pools in Heshbon, near the gate of Bath-Rabbim, Thy face as a tower of Lebanon looking to Damascus,

Young's Literal Translation

In The King James Version

Thy neck is as a tower of ivory; thine eyes like the fishpools in Heshbon, by the gate of Bath-rabbim: thy nose is as the tower of Lebanon which looketh toward Damascus.

In Context

3Thy two breasts as two young ones, twins of a roe,

5Thy head upon thee as Carmel, And the locks of thy head as purple, The king is bound with the flowings!
