Song of Songs 5:9-11

New International Reader's Version

⁹ “You are the most beautiful woman of all.
    How is the one you love better than others?
How is he better than anyone else?
    Why do you ask us to make you this promise?”

¹⁰ “The one who loves me is tanned and handsome.
    He’s the finest man among 10,000.
¹¹ His head is like the purest gold.
    His hair is wavy and as black as a raven.
