¹ To the Chief Musician, Concerning the Lilies. For the sons of Korah. A Poem; a Song of the Beloved. My heart is overflowing with a good matter. I am speaking of my works to the King;my tongue is the pen of a rapidwriter.² You are the fairest of the sons of man; grace has poured into Your lips; on this account God has blessed You forever.³ Gird Your sword on Your thigh, Mighty One; with Your glory and Your majesty.⁴ And ride prosperously in Your majesty, on the matter of truth and meekness and right, and Your right hand shall teach You fearful things.⁵ Your arrows are sharp in the heart of the King's enemies; peoples fall under You.

⁶ Your throne, O God, is forever and ever; the scepter of Your kingdom is a scepter of uprightness.⁷ You love righteousness and hate wickedness; on account of this God, Your God, has anointed You with the oil of gladness more than Your fellows.⁸ All Your garments smell of myrrh and aloes and cassia out of ivory palaces; by strings of a harp they make You glad.⁹ King's daughters are among Your precious ones; the queen stands at Your right hand in gold of Ophir.

¹⁰ Listen, O daughter, and look, and incline your ear, and forget your people and your father's house.¹¹ And the King will desire your beauty, for He is your Lord, and you shall worship Him.¹² And the daughter of Tyre will stroke Your face with a gift, the rich among the peoples.¹³ The king's daughter is all glorious within, her clothing braided gold.¹⁴ She shall be led to the King in embroidered work; her companions, the virgins, shall be brought to You after her.¹⁵ They shall be led with gladness and rejoicing; they shall go in to the King's palace.¹⁶ Your sons shall be in the place of your fathers; You will make them for rulers in all the earth.¹⁷ I will make remembered Your name in every generation and generation; on this account people shall thank You forever and ever.
