For the director of music. To the tune of “Lilies.” Of the Sons of Korah. A maskil.Title: Probably a literary or musical term A wedding song.
1My heart is stirred by a noble theme
as I recite my verses for the king;
my tongue is the pen of a skillful writer.
2You are the most excellent of men
and your lips have been anointed with grace,
since God has blessed you forever.
3Gird your sword on your side, you mighty one;
clothe yourself with splendor and majesty.
4In your majesty ride forth victoriously
in the cause of truth, humility and justice;
let your right hand achieve awesome deeds.
5Let your sharp arrows pierce the hearts of the king’s enemies;
let the nations fall beneath your feet.
6Your throne, O God,45:6 Here the king is addressed as God’s representative. will last for ever and ever;
a scepter of justice will be the scepter of your kingdom.
7You love righteousness and hate wickedness;
therefore God, your God, has set you above your companions
by anointing you with the oil of joy.
8All your robes are fragrant with myrrh and aloes and cassia;
from palaces adorned with ivory
the music of the strings makes you glad.
9Daughters of kings are among your honored women;
at your right hand is the royal bride in gold of Ophir.
10Listen, daughter, and pay careful attention:
Forget your people and your father’s house.
11Let the king be enthralled by your beauty;
honor him, for he is your lord.
12The city of Tyre will come with a gift,45:12 Or A Tyrian robe is among the gifts
people of wealth will seek your favor.
13All glorious is the princess within her chamber;
her gown is interwoven with gold.
14In embroidered garments she is led to the king;
her virgin companions follow her—
those brought to be with her.
15Led in with joy and gladness,
they enter the palace of the king.
16Your sons will take the place of your fathers;
you will make them princes throughout the land.
17I will perpetuate your memory through all generations;
therefore the nations will praise you for ever and ever.

婚礼诗歌
可拉后裔作的训诲诗，也是情歌，交给乐长，调用“百合花”。
1我心中涌出美丽的诗章，
我要把它献给王，
我的舌头是诗人手上的妙笔。
2你俊美无比，口出恩言，
因此上帝永远赐福给你。
3英勇的王啊，
佩上你的宝剑，
展示你的尊贵和威严！
4你威严无比，所向披靡，
捍卫真理、谦卑和公义。
愿你的右手彰显可畏的作为！
5你的利箭刺穿敌人的心窝，
列国臣服在你脚下。
6上帝啊，你的宝座永远长存，
你以公义的杖执掌王权。
7你喜爱公义，憎恶邪恶，
所以上帝，你的上帝，
用喜乐之油膏你，
使你超过同伴。
8你的衣袍散发出没药、沉香和肉桂的芬芳，
你陶醉在象牙宫的弦乐中。
9众公主在你的贵客中，
戴俄斐金饰的王后站在你右边。
10女子啊，要聆听，
要侧耳倾听：不要再挂念家乡的父老，
11王就会喜欢你的美貌，
你要敬重他，因他是你的主。
12泰尔人必来送礼，
富人必来取悦你。
13公主身穿金线衣，无比华贵。
14她身披锦绣，
由侍女伴随前来见王，
15她们欢喜快乐地被带入王宫。
16你的子孙将来要继承祖先的王位，
你要立他们在各地做王。
17我要使万代铭记你的名，
列邦必永远称谢你。
