My heart overfloweth with a goodly matter;

2 Thou art fairer than the children of men;

3 Gird thy sword upon thy thigh, O mighty one,

4 And in thy majesty ride on prosperously,

5 Thine arrows are sharp;

6 Thy throne, O God, is forever and ever:

7 Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated wickedness:

8 All thy garments smell of myrrh, and aloes, and cassia;

9 Kings’ daughters are among thy honorable women:

10 Hearken, O daughter, and consider, and incline thine ear;

11 So will the king desire thy beauty;

12 And the daughter of Tyre shall be there with a gift;

13 The king’s daughter within the palace is all glorious:

14 She shall be led unto the king in broidered work:

15 With gladness and rejoicing shall they be led:

16 Instead of thy fathers shall be thy children,

17 I will make thy name to be remembered in all generations:
