Song of Solomon 5:9-11

Expanded Bible

⁹ How is your lover better than other lovers,
    most beautiful of women?
How is your lover better than other lovers?
    Why do you want us to promise this?

¹⁰ My lover is ·healthy [radiant] and ·tan [ruddy],
    ·the best of [distinguished among] ten thousand men.
¹¹ His head is like ·the finest [pure] gold;
    his hair is wavy and black like a raven.
