Song of Solomon 5:12-14
Good News Translation
12 His eyes are as beautiful as doves by a flowing brook,
doves washed in milk and standing by the stream.[a]
13 His cheeks are as lovely as a garden
that is full of herbs and spices.
His lips are like lilies,
wet with liquid myrrh.
14 His hands are well-formed,
and he wears rings set with gems.
His body is like smooth ivory,[b]
with sapphires set in it.
