1
For the Leader; upon Shoshannim; [a Psalm] of the sons of Korah. Maschil. A Song of loves.
2My heart overfloweth with a goodly matter;
I say: ‘My work is concerning a king’;
My tongue is the pen of a ready writer.
3Thou art fairer than the children of men;
Grace is poured upon thy lips;
Therefore God hath blessed thee for ever.
4Gird thy sword upon thy thigh, O mighty one,
Thy glory and thy majesty.
5And in thy majesty prosper, ride on,
In behalf of truth and meekness and righteousness;
And let thy right hand teach thee tremendous things.
6Thine arrows are sharp—
The peoples fall under thee—
[They sink] into the heart of the king’s enemies.
7Thy throne given of God is for ever and ever;
A sceptre of equity is the sceptre of thy kingdom.
