1To the chief Musician5329 upon Shoshannim7799, for the sons1121 of Korah7141, Maschil4905, A Song7892 of loves3039. My heart3820 is inditing7370 a good2896 matter1697: I speak559 of the things which I have made4639 touching the king4428: my tongue3956 is the pen5842 of a ready4106 writer5608.
2Thou art fairer3302 than the children1121 of men120: grace2580 is poured3332 into thy lips8193: therefore God430 hath blessed1288 thee for ever5769.
3Gird2296 thy sword2719 upon thy thigh3409, O most mighty1368, with thy glory1935 and thy majesty1926.
4And in thy majesty1926 ride7392 prosperously6743 because1697 of truth571 and meekness6037 and righteousness6664; and thy right hand3225 shall teach3384 thee terrible things3372.
5Thine arrows2671 are sharp8150 in the heart3820 of the king's4428 enemies341; whereby the people5971 fall5307 under thee.
6Thy throne3678, O God430, is for ever5769 and ever5703: the sceptre7626 of thy kingdom4438 is a right4334 sceptre7626.
7Thou lovest157 righteousness6664, and hatest8130 wickedness7562: therefore God430, thy God430, hath anointed4886 thee with the oil8081 of gladness8342 above thy fellows2270.
8All thy garments899 smell of myrrh4753, and aloes174, and cassia7102, out of the ivory8127 palaces1964, whereby4482 they have made thee glad8055.
9Kings'4428 daughters1323 were among thy honourable women3368: upon thy right hand3225 did stand5324 the queen7694 in gold3800 of Ophir211.
10Hearken8085, O daughter1323, and consider7200, and incline5186 thine ear241; forget7911 also thine own people5971, and thy father's1 house1004;
11So shall the king4428 greatly desire183 thy beauty3308: for he is thy Lord113; and worship7812 thou him.
12And the daughter1323 of Tyre6865 shall be there with a gift4503; even the rich6223 among the people5971 shall intreat2470 thy favour6440.
13The king's4428 daughter1323 is all glorious3520 within6441: her clothing3830 is of wrought4865 gold2091.
14She shall be brought2986 unto the king4428 in raiment of needlework7553: the virgins1330 her companions7464 that follow310 her shall be brought935 unto thee.
15With gladness8057 and rejoicing1524 shall they be brought2986: they shall enter935 into the king's4428 palace1964.
16Instead of thy fathers1 shall be thy children1121, whom thou mayest make7896 princes8269 in all the earth776.
17I will make thy name8034 to be remembered2142 in all1755 generations1755: therefore shall the people5971 praise3034 thee for ever5769 and ever5703.
