Translation

(1) For the Leader; upon Shoshannim; [a Psalm] of the sons of Korah. Maschil. A Song of loves.

(2) My heart overfloweth with a goodly matter; I say: 'My work is concerning a king'; My tongue is the pen of a ready writer.

(3) Thou art fairer than the children of men; Grace is poured upon thy lips; Therefore God hath blessed thee for ever.

(4) Gird thy sword upon thy thigh, O mighty one, Thy glory and thy majesty.

(5) And in thy majesty prosper, ride on, In behalf of truth and meekness and righteousness; And let thy right hand teach thee tremendous things.

(6) Thine arrows are sharp— The peoples fall under thee— [They sink] into the heart of the king's enemies.

(7) Thy throne given of God is for ever and ever; A sceptre of equity is the sceptre of thy kingdom.

(8) Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated wickedness; Therefore God, thy God, hath anointed thee With the oil of gladness above thy fellows.

(9) Myrrh, and aloes, and cassia are all thy garments; Out of ivory palaces stringed instruments have made thee glad.

(10) Kings' daughters are among thy favourites; At thy right hand doth stand the queen in gold of Ophir.

(11) 'Hearken, O daughter, and consider, and incline thine ear; Forget also thine own people, and thy father's house;

(12) So shall the king desire thy beauty; For he is thy lord; and do homage unto him. .

(13) And, O daughter of Tyre, the richest of the people Shall entreat thy favour with a gift.'

(14) All glorious is the king's daughter within the palace; Her raiment is of chequer work inwrought with gold.

(15) She shall be led unto the king on richly woven stuff; The virgins her companions in her train being brought unto thee.

(16) They shall be led with gladness and rejoicing; They shall enter into the king's palace.

(17) Instead of thy fathers shall be thy sons, Whom thou shalt make princes in all the land.

(18) I will make thy name to be remembered in all generations; Therefore shall the peoples praise thee for ever and ever.
