8 From your clothes comes the wonderful smell of myrrh, aloes, and cassia. In palaces decorated with ivory, you enjoy the music of stringed instruments.
9 Here are ladies of honor, daughters of kings. Your bride stands at your right side, wearing a gown decorated with the finest gold.
10 My lady, listen to me. Listen carefully and understand me. Forget your people and your father’s family,
11 so that the king will be pleased with your beauty. He will be your new husband, so you must honor him.
12 People from Tyre will bring you gifts. Their richest people will try to win your friendship.
13 The princess is so beautiful in her gown, like a pearl set in gold.
14 Clothed in beauty, she is led to the king, followed by her bridesmaids.
