1
To the Overseer, upon Shoshanniym. Of the sons of Qorach. A Maskiyl. A song of loves.
2
My heart overflows with a good word; I speak my works concerning the King. My tongue is the pen of a swift scribe.
3
You are more beautiful than the sons of Adam; favor is poured upon your lips. Therefore Elohim has blessed you forever.
4
Gird your sword upon your thigh, mighty one, your splendor and your majesty.
5
In your majesty ride prosperously for Truth, humility, and Righteousness; let your right hand teach you awe-inspiring deeds.
6
Your arrows are sharp; peoples fall beneath you; they enter the heart of the King’s enemies.
7
Your Throne, Elohim, is forever and ever; a scepter of uprightness is the scepter of Your Kingdom.
8
You have loved Righteousness and hated wickedness. Therefore Elohim, your Elohim, has anointed you with oil of gladness above your companions.
9
Myrrh, aloes, and cassia perfume all your garments; from palaces of ivory stringed instruments gladden you.
10
Daughters of kings are among your honored ones; the royal ishah stands at your right hand in gold of Ophiyr.
11
Hear, daughter, and see; incline your ear. Forget your people and your father’s House.
12
The King desires your beauty; for He is your Adonai, and bow to Him.
13
The daughter of Tzor comes with a gift; the rich of the people seek your face.
14
All glorious is the daughter of the King within; her clothing is interwoven with gold.
15
In embroidered garments she is brought to the King; maidens behind her, her companions, are brought to you.
16
They are led with rejoicing and gladness; they enter the palace of the King.
17
In place of your fathers are your sons; you set them as rulers in all the earth.
18
I cause Your Name to be remembered in every generation; therefore peoples praise You forever and ever.
