Song of Songs 5:7

7 The (A)watchmen who go about in the city found me,
They struck me and wounded me;
The guardsmen of the walls took away my shawl from me.
Isaiah 21:6-8

6 For thus the Lord says to me,
“Go, station the lookout, let him (A)declare what he sees.
7 Indeed, he shall see (B)riders, horsemen in pairs,
Riders of donkeys, riders of camels,
So let him pay close attention, very close attention.”
8 Then [a]the lookout called,
“(C)O Lord, I stand continually by day on the watchtower,
And I am stationed every night at my guard post.
