Which verse from Song of Solomon is included in the cited verses?

• A. Jeremiah 14:2
• B. Lamentations 4:8
• C. Psalms 68:11
• D. Song of Solomon 1:5

Answer: (D)

Recognize where a cited verse comes from by its style and voice. The line “I am black, but comely, O ye daughters of Jerusalem” is characteristic of Song of Solomon, a book of intimate, poetic love lyrics. This book is distinct from prophetic writings like Jeremiah, from the lament-focused book Lamentations, and from the varied imagery of Psalms. Among the options, only the verse that matches Song of Solomon 1:5 belongs to this book. So the verse from Song of Solomon is Song of Solomon 1:5.
