Song of Songs 5:10-16
Christian Standard Bible
Woman
11 His head is purest gold.
His hair is wavy[b](C)
and black as a raven.
12 His eyes are like doves(D)
beside flowing streams,
washed in milk
and set like jewels.[c]
13 His cheeks(E) are like beds of spice,
mounds of[d] perfume.
His lips are lilies,
dripping with flowing myrrh.(F)
14 His arms[e] are rods of gold
set[f] with beryl.(G)
His body[g] is an ivory panel
covered with lapis lazuli.(H)
15 His legs are alabaster pillars
set on pedestals of pure gold.
His presence is like Lebanon,(I)
as majestic as the cedars.(J)
16 His mouth is sweetness.
He is absolutely desirable.(K)
This is my love, and this is my friend,
young women of Jerusalem.
