1 My heart overflows with a noble theme.
I recite my verses for the king.
My tongue is like the pen of a skillful writer.
2 You are the most excellent of the sons of men.
Grace has anointed your lips,
therefore God has blessed you forever.
3 Strap your sword on your thigh, O mighty one,
in your splendor and your majesty.
4 In your majesty ride on victoriously on behalf of truth, humility, and righteousness.
Let your right hand display awesome deeds.
5 Your arrows are sharp.
The nations fall under you, with arrows in the heart of the king’s enemies.
6 Your throne, God, is forever and ever.
A scepter of equity is the scepter of your kingdom.
7 You have loved righteousness, and hated wickedness.
Therefore God, your God, has anointed you with the oil of gladness above your fellows.
8 All your garments smell like myrrh, aloes, and cassia.
Out of ivory palaces stringed instruments have made you glad.
9 Kings’ daughters are among your honorable women.
At your right hand the queen stands in gold of Ophir.
10 Listen, daughter, consider, and turn your ear.
Forget your own people, and also your father’s house.
11 So the king will desire your beauty,
honor him, for he is your lord.
12 The daughter of Tyre comes with a gift.
The rich among the people entreat your favor.
13 The princess inside is all glorious.
Her clothing is interwoven with gold.
14 She shall be led to the king in embroidered work.
The virgins, her companions who follow her, shall be brought to you.
15 With gladness and rejoicing they shall be led.
They shall enter into the king’s palace.
16 Your sons will take the place of your fathers.
You shall make them princes in all the earth.
17 I will make your name to be remembered in all generations.
Therefore the peoples shall give you thanks forever and ever.

1 [To the chief Musician. Upon Shoshannim. Of the sons of Korah. An instruction; -a song of the Beloved.] My heart is welling forth {with} a good matter: I say what I have composed touching the king. My tongue is the pen of a ready writer.2 Thou art fairer than the sons 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, {in} thy majesty and thy splendour;4 And {in} thy splendour ride prosperously, because of truth and meekness {and} righteousness: and thy right hand shall teach thee terrible things.5 Thine arrows are sharp-peoples fall under thee-in the heart of the king's enemies.6 Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever; a sceptre of uprightness 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 companions.8 Myrrh and aloes, cassia, are all thy garments; out of ivory palaces stringed instruments have made thee glad.9 Kings' daughters are among thine honourable women; upon thy right hand doth stand the queen in gold of Ophir.10 Hearken, daughter, and see, and incline thine ear; and forget thine own people and thy father's house:11 And the king will desire thy beauty; for he is thy Lord, and worship thou him.12 And the daughter of Tyre with a gift, the rich ones among the people, shall court thy favour.13 All glorious is the king's daughter within; her clothing is of wrought gold:14 She shall be brought unto the king in raiment of embroidery; the virgins behind her, her companions, shall be brought in unto thee:15 With joy and gladness shall they be brought; they shall enter into the king's palace.16 Instead of thy fathers shall be thy sons; princes shalt thou make them in all the earth.17 I will make thy name to be remembered throughout all generations; therefore shall the peoples praise thee for ever and ever.
