Song of Solomon 5:10-16 ▼

10 My beloved is dazzling and ruddy, distinguished above a myriad.

11 His head is gold, pure gold; his locks are wavy, black like the raven.

12 His eyes are like doves beside channels of waters, washed with milk, sitting beside a full pool.

13 His cheeks are like a bed of spice, towers of perfume. His lips lilies, dripping with flowing myrrh.

14 His hands are rods of gold, set with beryl; his belly is a plate of ivory, covered with sapphires;

15 his legs are pillars of marble, set on bases of pure gold; his appearance is like the Lebanon, being excellent like the cedars.

16 His mouth is sweetness, and all of him is desireable. This is my beloved, and this is my friend, O daughters of Jerusalem!
