1 我心里涌出优美的言辞; 我要为王朗诵我的作品; 我的舌头像经验丰富的作家的笔。

2 你比世人都美好; 你的嘴唇吐出恩言; 因此, 神赐福给你, 直到永远。

3 大能者啊! 愿你腰间佩上刀, 彰显你的尊荣和威严。

4 在你的威严中, 为了真理、谦卑和公义的缘故, 你胜利地乘车前进; 愿你的右手施行可畏的事。

5 你的箭锐利, 射中了王的仇敌的心; 万民都仆倒在你脚下。

6 神啊! 你的宝座是永永远远的, 你国的权杖是公平的权杖。

7 你喜爱公义, 恨恶邪恶, 所以, 神, 就是你的 神, 用喜乐的油膏抹你, 胜过膏抹你的同伴。

8 你的衣服都有没药、沉香和肉桂的香气; 从象牙宫里有丝弦的乐声, 使你欢喜。

9 你的贵妃中有众君王的女儿; 王后佩戴着俄斐的金饰, 站在你的右边。

10 王所爱的女子啊! 你要听, 要看, 要留心地听; 你要忘记你的本族和你的父家;

11 王就爱慕你的美丽; 因为他是你的主, 你要向他俯伏。

12 推罗的居民("居民"原文作"女子")必带着礼物而来; 民间富有的人要向你求恩。

13 王所爱的女子在宫里, 极其荣华; 她的衣服全是用金线绣成的。

14 她身穿刺绣的衣服, 被引到王的面前; 她后面伴随的童女, 也都被带到你的面前。

15 她们欢喜快乐被引到王那里; 她们要进入王宫。

16 你的子孙必接续你的列祖; 你要立他们作全地的王。

17 我必使你的名被万代记念; 因此万民都必称赞你, 直到永永远远。

For the Chief Musician; set to Shoshannim. A Psalm of the sons of Korah. Maschil. A Song of loves.

1 My heart overfloweth with a goodly matter;

I speak the things which I have made touching the king:

My tongue is the pen of a ready writer.

2 Thou art fairer than the children of men;

Grace is poured into thy lips:

Therefore God hath blessed thee for ever.

3 Gird thy sword upon thy thigh, O mighty one,

Thy glory and thy majesty.

4 And in thy majesty ride on prosperously,

Because of truth and meekness and righteousness:

And thy right hand shall teach thee terrible things.

5 Thine arrows are sharp;

The peoples fall under thee;

They are in the heart of the king’s enemies.

6 Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever:

A sceptre of equity is the sceptre of thy kingdom.

7 Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated wickedness:

Therefore God, thy God, hath anointed thee

With the oil of gladness above thy fellows.

8 All thy garments smell of myrrh, and aloes, and cassia;

Out of ivory palaces stringed instruments have made thee glad.

9 Kings’ daughters are among thy honorable women:

At thy right hand doth stand the queen in gold of Ophir.

10 Hearken, O daughter, and consider, and incline thine ear;

Forget also thine own people, and thy father’s house:

11 So will the king desire thy beauty;

For he is thy lord; and reverence thou him.

12 And the daughter of Tyre shall be there with a gift;

The rich among the people shall entreat thy favor.

13 The king’s daughter within the palace is all glorious:

Her clothing is inwrought with gold.

14 She shall be led unto the king in broidered work:

The virgins her companions that follow her

Shall be brought unto thee.

15 With gladness and rejoicing shall they be led:

They shall enter into the king’s palace.

16 Instead of thy fathers shall be thy children,

Whom thou shalt make princes in all the earth.

17 I will make thy name to be remembered in all generations:

Therefore shall the peoples give thee thanks for ever and ever.
