| 13 | Though ye have lien among the pots, yet shall ye be as the wings of a dove covered with silver, and her feathers with yellow gold. | Though you lie down among the sheepfolds, the wings of the dove are covered with silver, and her feathers with shimmering gold.” | When ye lie among the sheepfolds, It is as the wings of a dove covered with silver, And her pinions with yellow gold. |
