KING JAMES VERSION (KJV)


1  (To the chief Musician upon Shoshannim, for the sons of Korah, Maschil, A Song of loves.) My heart is inditing a good matter: I speak of the things which I have made touching the king: my tongue is the pen of a ready writer.

2  Thou art fairer than the children of men: grace is poured into thy lips: therefore God hath blessed thee for ever.

3  Gird thy sword upon thy thigh, O most mighty, with thy glory and thy majesty.

4  And in thy majesty ride prosperously because of truth and meekness and righteousness; and thy right hand shall teach thee terrible things.

5  Thine arrows are sharp in the heart of the king's enemies; whereby the people fall under thee.

6  Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: the sceptre of thy kingdom is a right sceptre.

7  Thou lovest righteousness, and hatest wickedness: therefore God, thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.

8  All thy garments smell of myrrh, and aloes, and cassia, out of the ivory palaces, whereby they have made thee glad.

9  Kings' daughters were among thy honourable women: upon thy right hand did stand the queen in gold of Ophir.

10  Hearken, O daughter, and consider, and incline thine ear; forget also thine own people, and thy father's house;

11  So shall the king greatly desire thy beauty: for he is thy Lord; and worship thou him.

12  And the daughter of Tyre shall be there with a gift; even the rich among the people shall intreat thy favour.

13  The king's daughter is all glorious within: her clothing is of wrought gold.

14  She shall be brought unto the king in raiment of needlework: the virgins her companions that follow her shall be brought unto thee.

15  With gladness and rejoicing shall they be brought: they shall enter into the king's palace.

16  Instead of thy fathers shall be thy children, whom thou mayest make princes in all the earth.

17  I will make thy name to be remembered in all generations: therefore shall the people praise thee for ever and ever.

1  To the chiefe Musician vpon Shoshannim, for the sonnes of Korah, Maschil: a song of loues. My heart is inditing a good matter: I speake of the things which I haue made, touching the King: my tongue is the penne of a ready writer.

2  Thou art fairer then the children of men: grace is powred into thy lips: therfore God hath blessed thee for euer.

3  Gird thy sword vpon thy thigh, O most mightie: with thy glory and thy maiestie.

4  And in thy maiestie ride prosperously, because of trueth and meekenes, and righteousnesse: and thy right hand shall teach thee terrible things.

5  Thine arrowes are sharpe in the heart of the Kings enemies; whereby the people fall vnder thee.

6  Thy throne (O God) is for euer and euer: the scepter of thy kingdome is a right scepter.

7  Thou louest righteousnesse, and hatest wickednesse: therefore God, thy God, hath anointed thee with the oyle of gladnesse aboue thy fellowes.

8  All thy garments smell of myrrhe, and aloes, and cassia: out of the Iuorie palaces, whereby they haue made thee glad.

9  Kings daughters were among thy honourable women: vpon thy right hand did stand the Queene in golde of Ophir.

10  Hearken (O daughter) and consider, and incline thine eare; forget also thine owne people, and thy fathers house.

11  So shall the king greatly desire thy beautie: for he is thy Lord, and worship thou him.

12  And the daughter of Tyre shall be there with a gift, euen the rich among the people shall intreate thy fauour.

13  The kings daughter is all glorious within; her clothing is of wrought gold.

14  She shall bee brought vnto the king in raiment of needle worke: the virgins her companions that followe her, shall be brought vnto thee.

15  With gladnesse and reioycing shall they be brought: they shall enter into the kings palace.

16  In stead of thy fathers shall bee thy children, whom thou mayest make princes in all the earth.

17  I will make thy name to bee remembred in all generations: therefore shall the people praise thee for euer and euer.
