1 My heart is overflowing with a good theme;I recite my composition concerning the King;My tongue is the pen of a ready writer.
2 You are fairer than the sons of men;Grace is poured upon Your lips;Therefore God has blessed You forever.
3 Gird Your sword upon Your thigh, O Mighty One,With Your glory and Your majesty.
4 And in Your majesty ride prosperously because of truth, humility, and righteousness;And Your right hand shall teach You awesome things.
5 Your arrows are sharp in the heart of the King’s enemies;The peoples fall under You.
6 Your throne, O God, is forever and ever;A scepter of righteousness is the scepter of Your kingdom.
7 You love righteousness and hate wickedness;Therefore God, Your God, has anointed YouWith the oil of gladness more than Your companions.
8 All Your garments are scented with myrrh and aloes and cassia,Out of the ivory palaces, by which they have made You glad.
9 Kings’ daughters are among Your honorable women;At Your right hand stands the queen in gold from Ophir.
10 Listen, O daughter,Consider and incline your ear;Forget your own people also, and your father’s house;
11 So the King will greatly desire your beauty;Because He is your Lord, worship Him.
12 And the daughter of Tyre will come with a gift;The rich among the people will seek your favor.
13 The royal daughter is all glorious within the palace;Her clothing is woven with gold.
14 She shall be brought to the King in robes of many colors;The virgins, her companions who follow her, shall be brought to You.
15 With gladness and rejoicing they shall be brought;They shall enter the King’s palace.
16 Instead of Your fathers shall be Your sons,Whom You shall make princes in all the earth.
17 I will make Your name to be remembered in all generations;Therefore the people shall praise You forever and ever.
