Song of Solomon 5:12-14

Good News Translation

¹² His eyes are as beautiful as doves by a flowing brook,
    doves washed in milk and standing by the stream.^[a]
13 His cheeks are as lovely as a garden
    that is full of herbs and spices.
His lips are like lilies,
    wet with liquid myrrh.
¹⁴ His hands are well-formed,
    and he wears rings set with gems.
His body is like smooth ivory,^[b]
    with sapphires set in it.
