American Standard Version

Song Of Solomon 5:11-16 American Standard Version (ASV)

11. His head is as the most fine gold; His locks are bushy, and black as a raven.

12. His eyes are like doves beside the water-brooks, Washed with milk, and fitly set.

13. His cheeks are as a bed of spices, As banks of sweet herbs: His lips are as lilies, dropping liquid myrrh.

14. His hands are as rings of gold set with beryl: His body is as ivory work overlaid with sapphires.

15. His legs are as pillars of marble, set upon sockets of fine gold: His aspect is like Lebanon, excellent as the cedars.

16. His mouth is most sweet; Yea, he is altogether lovely. This is my beloved, and this is my friend, O daughters of Jerusalem.
