Song of Songs 5:10-16 - The Woman Answers The Friends

¹⁰ My Beloved is bright and ruddy, standing out among ten thousand. ¹¹ His head is like refined gold; His locks are bushy, black as a raven. ¹² His eyes are as doves' eyes on the rivers of waters, washed with milk, sitting on a setting. ¹³ His cheeks are like a bed of spices, a raised bed of aromatic herbs. His lips are as lilies dropping flowing myrrh. ¹⁴ His hands are like rings of gold filled with jewels; His body an ivory plate overlaid with sapphires. ¹⁵ His legs are like pillars of marble set on sockets of fine gold; His face is like Lebanon, excellent as the cedars. ¹⁶ His mouth is most sweet; yes, He is altogether lovely. This is my Beloved, and this is my Friend, O daughters of Jerusalem.
