Song of Solomon 5:10-15

New American Standard Bible

¹⁰ “My beloved is dazzling and ^[a](A)reddish,
^(B)Outstanding among ten thousand.
¹¹ His head is like gold, pure gold;
His ^(C)locks are like clusters of dates
And black as a raven.
¹² His ^(D)eyes are like doves
Beside streams of water,
Bathed in milk,
And perched in their ^(E)setting.
¹³ His cheeks are like a ^(F)bed of balsam,
^[b]Banks of herbal spices;
His lips are ^(G)lilies
^(H)Dripping with drops of myrrh.
¹⁴ His hands are rods of gold
Set with ^(I)topaz;
His abdomen is panels of ivory
Covered with ^[c](J)sapphires.
¹⁵ His thighs are pillars of alabaster
Set on pedestals of pure gold;
His appearance is like ^(K)Lebanon,
Choice as the ^(L)cedars.
