Song of Songs 3:6-11 - Royal Wedding Procession

6 Who is this coming out of the waste places like pillars of smoke, perfumed with sweet spices, with all the spices of the trader? 7 See, it is the bed of Solomon; sixty men of war are about it, of the army of Israel, 8 All of them armed with swords, trained in war; every man has his sword at his side, because of fear in the night.

9 King Solomon made himself a bed of the wood of Lebanon. 10 He made its pillars of silver, its base of gold, its seat of purple, the middle of it of ebony. 11 Go out, O daughters of Jerusalem, and see King Solomon, with the crown which his mother put on his head on the day when he was married, and on the day of the joy of his heart.
