Scriptures

New King James Version (NKJV)

Song of Solomon 5
¹³ His cheeks are like a bed of spices, Banks of scented herbs. His lips are lilies, Dripping liquid myrrh.
¹⁴ His hands are rods of gold Set with beryl. His body is carved ivory Inlaid with sapphires.
¹⁵ His legs are pillars of marble Set on bases of fine gold. His countenance 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!
Song of Solomon 6
¹ The Daughters of Jerusalem Where has your beloved gone, O fairest among women? Where has your beloved turned aside, That we may seek him with you?
² The Shulamite My beloved has gone to his garden, To the beds of spices, To feed his flock in the gardens, And to gather lilies.
³ I am my beloved’s, And my beloved is mine. He feeds his flock among the lilies.
⁴ The Beloved O my love, you are as beautiful as Tirzah, Lovely as Jerusalem, Awesome as an army with banners!
⁵ Turn your eyes away from me, For they have overcome me. Your hair is like a flock of goats Going down from Gilead.
⁶ Your teeth are like a flock of sheep Which have come up from the washing; Every one bears twins, And none is barren among them.
⁷ Like a piece of pomegranate Are your temples behind your veil.
