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

¹⁰ As for my loved, he is white and red colored, a singular person among many thousands; ¹¹ His head is the most fine gold, the locks of his hair are bushed, and brown as the evening; ¹² His eyes are as the eyes of doves by the water brooks, as though they were washed with milk and set like pearls in gold. ¹³ His cheeks are like a garden bed, wherein the Apothecaries plant all manner of sweet things; His lips are like roses that drop sweet smelling Myrrh. ¹⁴ His hands are like gold rings, having enclosed the precious stone of Tarshish; His body is as the pure ivory, decked over with Sapphires. ¹⁵ His legs are as the pillars of Marble, set upon sockets of gold; His face is as Lebanon, and as the beauty of the Cedar trees. ¹⁶ His throat is sweet; yea, he is altogether lovely. Such one is my love, O ye daughters of Jerusalem, such one is my love.
