³ Mighty warrior, strap your sword at your side.
In your majesty and splendor^(E)—
⁴ in your splendor ride triumphantly
in the cause of truth, humility, and justice.
May your right hand show your awe-inspiring acts.^(F)
5 Your sharpened arrows pierce the hearts of the king’s enemies;
the peoples fall under you.^(G)

⁶ Your throne,^(H) God, is^[b] forever and ever;
the scepter of your kingdom is a scepter of justice.^(I)
7 You love righteousness and hate wickedness;^(J)
therefore God, your God, has anointed you with the oil of joy
more than your companions.
⁸ Myrrh, aloes, and cassia perfume all your garments;
from ivory palaces harps bring you joy.^(K)
9 Kings’ daughters are among your honored women;^(L)
the queen, adorned with gold from Ophir,
stands at your right hand.^(M)

¹⁰ Listen, daughter, pay attention and consider:
Forget your people and your father’s house,^(N)
11 and the king will desire your beauty.
Bow down to him, for he is your lord.^(O)
12 The daughter of Tyre, the wealthy people,
will seek your favor with gifts.^(P)

¹³ In her chamber, the royal daughter is all glorious,
her clothing embroidered with gold.^(Q)
14 In colorful garments she is led to the king;
after her, the virgins, her companions, are brought to you.^(R)
15 They are led in with gladness and rejoicing;
they enter the king’s palace.^(S)

¹⁶ Your sons will succeed your ancestors;
you will make them princes throughout the land.^(T)
17 I will cause your name to be remembered for all generations;
therefore the peoples will praise you forever and ever.^(U)
