14 “His hands are rods of gold
Set with (A)beryl;
His abdomen is carved ivory
Inlaid with [a](B)sapphires.
15 “His legs are pillars of alabaster
Set on pedestals of pure gold;
His appearance is like (C)Lebanon
Choice as the (D)cedars.
16 “His [b](E)mouth is full of sweetness.
And he is wholly (F)desirable.
This is my beloved and this is my friend,
O daughters of Jerusalem.”
