## Text

[1] My heart is stirred by a noble theme
as I recite my verses to the king;
my tongue is the pen of a skillful writer. [2] You are the most handsome of men;
grace has anointed your lips,
since God has blessed you forever. [3] Strap your sword at your side, O mighty warrior;
appear in your majesty and splendor. [4] In your splendor ride forth in victory
on behalf of truth and humility and justice;
may your right hand show your awesome deeds. [5] Your arrows pierce the hearts of the king’s foes;
the nations fall beneath your feet. [6] Your throne, O God, endures forever and ever,
and justice is the scepter of Your kingdom. [7] You have loved righteousness
and hated wickedness;
therefore God, your God, has anointed you
above your companions with the oil of joy. [8] All your garments are fragrant
with myrrh and aloes and cassia;
from palaces of ivory the harps make you glad. [9] The daughters of kings are among your honored women;
the queen stands at your right hand,
adorned with the gold of Ophir. [10] Listen, O daughter! Consider and incline your ear:
Forget your people and your father’s house, [11] and the king will desire your beauty;
bow to him, for he is your lord. [12] The Daughter of Tyre will come with a gift;
men of wealth will seek your favor. [13] All glorious is the princess in her chamber;
her gown is embroidered with gold. [14] In colorful garments she is led to the king;
her virgin companions are brought before you. [15] They are led in with joy and gladness;
they enter the palace of the king. [16] Your sons will succeed your fathers;
you will make them princes throughout the land. [17] I will commemorate your name through all generations;
therefore the nations will praise you forever and ever.
