BOOK SECOND
Chap. 45
1 To the chief musician upon Shoshannim;1 to the sons of Korah, Maschil, a song of love.
2 My heart hath overflowed [with] a good matter; I am declaring my works to the king; my tongue [is] the pen of a ready writer.
3 Thou hast been very fair above the sons of men; grace hath been poured into thy lips; therefore God hath blessed thee forever.
4 Gird thy sword upon the thigh, Ο mighty one, thy glory and thy majesty.
5 And [in] thy majesty prosper, ride, for the cause of truth and meekness of righteousness; and thy right hand shall teach thee terrible things.
6 Thine arrows [are] sharpened—the peoples fall under thee—in the heart of the king's enemies.
7 Thy throne, Ο God, is forever and ever; a scepter of righteousness [is] the scepter of thy kingdom.
8 Thou hast loved righteousness and hated wickedness: therefore God, [even] thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy companions.
9 Myrrh and aloes [and] cassia [are] all thy garments; from the palaces of ivory stringed instruments have gladdened thee.
10 Daughters of kings [are] among thine honorable women; at thy right hand hath stood the queen in fine gold of Ophir.
11 Hear, Ο daughter, and see, and incline thine ear, and forget thy people and thy father's house.
12 And the king greatly desireth thy beauty; for he [is] thy lord; and bow down thyself to him.
13 And the daughter of Tire [shall be there] with a gift; the rich among the people shall entreat thy face.
14 All glorious is the king's daughter within; 2of gold-embroidered work [is] her garment.
15 In embroidered work of many colors is she brought unto the king; the virgins after her, her companions, are brought to thee.
16 They are led forth with gladness and joy; they enter into the palace of the king.
17 Instead of thy fathers shall be thy sons: thou shalt appoint them as princes in all the earth.
18 I will make mention of thy name throughout all generations: therefore peoples shall give thee thanks forever and ever.
