Song of Solomon 8:8

[When the family and wedding guests are gathered at the bride's mother's house, the bride says to her stepbrothers: When I was a little girl, you said:]
"We have a little sister
who doesn't have breasts yet.
What shall we do for our sister
on the day someone comes to ask if he can marry her?" [Literally: "the day someone wants to talk to her."]
