New American Standard Bible A Song Celebrating the Kings Marriage. For the choir director; according to the Shoshannim. A Maskil of the sons of Korah. A Song of Love. 1My heart overflows with a good theme; I address my verses to the King; My tongue is the pen of a ready writer.
2You are fairer than the sons of men;
3Gird Your sword on Your thigh, O Mighty One,
4And in Your majesty ride on victoriously,
5Your arrows are sharp;
6Your throne, O God, is forever and ever;
7You have loved righteousness and hated wickedness;
8All Your garments are fragrant with myrrh and aloes and cassia;
9Kings daughters are among Your noble ladies;
10Listen, O daughter, give attention and incline your ear:
11Then the King will desire your beauty.
12The daughter of Tyre will come with a gift;
13The Kings daughter is all glorious within;
14She will be led to the King in embroidered work;
15They will be led forth with gladness and rejoicing;
16In place of your fathers will be your sons;
17I will cause Your name to be remembered in all generations; New American Standard Bible Copyright © 1960, 1962, 1963, 1968, 1971, 1972, 1973, 1975, 1977, 1995 by The Lockman Foundation, La Habra, Calif.
