1 <V 44:1>Unto the end. For those who will be changed. To the sons of Korah, toward understanding. A Canticle for the Beloved. <V 44:2>My heart has uttered a good word. I speak of my works to the king. My tongue is like the pen of a scribe who writes quickly. My heart overflows with a pleasing theme; I address my verses to the king; my tongue is like the pen of a ready scribe. For the director of music. To the tune of “Lilies.” Of the Sons of Korah. A maskil. A wedding song. My heart is stirred by a noble theme as I recite my verses for the king; my tongue is the pen of a skillful writer.
2 <V 44:3>You are a brilliant form before the sons of men. Grace has been poured freely into your lips. Because of this, God has blessed you in eternity. You are the most handsome of the sons of men; grace is poured upon your lips; therefore God has blessed you forever. You are the most excellent of men and your lips have been anointed with grace, since God has blessed you forever.
3 <V 44:4>Fasten your sword to your thigh, O most powerful one. Gird your sword on your thigh, O mighty one, in your splendor and majesty! Gird your sword on your side, you mighty one; clothe yourself with splendor and majesty.
4 <V 44:5>With your splendor and your excellence extended, proceed prosperously, and reign for the sake of truth and meekness and justice, and so will your right hand lead you wondrously. In your majesty ride out victoriously for the cause of truth and meekness and righteousness; let your right hand teach you awesome deeds! In your majesty ride forth victoriously in the cause of truth, humility and justice; let your right hand achieve awesome deeds.
5 <V 44:6>Your arrows are sharp; the people will fall under you, with the hearts of the enemies of the king. Your arrows are sharp in the heart of the king’s enemies; the peoples fall under you. Let your sharp arrows pierce the hearts of the king’s enemies; let the nations fall beneath your feet.
6 <V 44:7>Your throne, O God, is forever and ever. The scepter of your kingdom is a scepter of true aim. Your throne, O God, is forever and ever. The scepter of your kingdom is a scepter of uprightness; Your throne, O God, will last for ever and ever; a scepter of justice will be the scepter of your kingdom.
7 <V 44:8>You have loved justice and hated iniquity. Because of this, God, your God, has anointed you, before your co-heirs, with the oil of gladness. you have loved righteousness and hated wickedness. Therefore God, your God, has anointed you with the oil of gladness beyond your companions; You love righteousness and hate wickedness; therefore God, your God, has set you above your companions by anointing you with the oil of joy.
8 <V 44:9>Myrrh and balsam and cinnamon perfume your garments, from the houses of ivory. From these, they have delighted you: your robes are all fragrant with myrrh and aloes and cassia. From ivory palaces stringed instruments make you glad; All your robes are fragrant with myrrh and aloes and cassia; from palaces adorned with ivory the music of the strings makes you glad.
9 <V 44:10>the daughters of kings in your honor. The queen assisted at your right hand, in clothing of gold, encircled with diversity. daughters of kings are among your ladies of honor; at your right hand stands the queen in gold of Ophir. Daughters of kings are among your honored women; at your right hand is the royal bride in gold of Ophir.
10 <V 44:11>Listen, daughter, and see, and incline your ear. And forget your people and your father’s house. Hear, O daughter, and consider, and incline your ear: forget your people and your father’s house, Listen, daughter, and pay careful attention: Forget your people and your father’s house.
11 <V 44:12>And the king will desire your beauty. For he is the Lord your God, and they will adore him. and the king will desire your beauty. Since he is your lord, bow to him. Let the king be enthralled by your beauty; honor him, for he is your lord.
12 <V 44:13>And the daughters of Tyre will entreat your countenance with gifts: all the rich men of the people. The people of Tyre will seek your favor with gifts, the richest of the people. The city of Tyre will come with a gift, people of wealth will seek your favor.
13 <V 44:14>All the glory of the daughter of its king is inside, in golden fringes, All glorious is the princess in her chamber, with robes interwoven with gold. All glorious is the princess within her chamber; her gown is interwoven with gold.
14 <V 44:15>clothed all around with diversities. After her, virgins will be led to the king. Her neighbors will be brought to you. In many-colored robes she is led to the king, with her virgin companions following behind her. In embroidered garments she is led to the king; her virgin companions follow her— those brought to be with her.
15 <V 44:16>They will be brought with gladness and exultation. They will be led into the temple of the king. With joy and gladness they are led along as they enter the palace of the king. Led in with joy and gladness, they enter the palace of the king.
16 <V 44:17>For your fathers, sons have been born to you. You will establish them as leaders over all the earth. In place of your fathers shall be your sons; you will make them princes in all the earth. Your sons will take the place of your fathers; you will make them princes throughout the land.
17 <V 44:18>They will remember your name always, for generation after generation. Because of this, people will confess to you in eternity, even forever and ever. I will cause your name to be remembered in all generations; therefore nations will praise you forever and ever. I will perpetuate your memory through all generations; therefore the nations will praise you for ever and ever.
