45:0 A royal wedding song
45 For the musical director: a song[fn] by Korah’s descendants. A love song to be sung to the tune of ‘Lilies’.
45 My heart is stirred with an excellent message.
I’ll read aloud the words I’ve composed about the king.
My tongue is like the pen of a skilled secretary.
2 You are more perfect to look at than the children of humanity.
so we know that God has blessed you forever.
3 Strap your sword to your side, mighty warrior,
in your splendour and majesty.
4 Ride on triumphantly in your majesty because of trustworthiness, humility, and innocence.
Your powerful actions display your awesome abilities.
5 Your arrows are sharp—the peoples fall under you.
Your arrows pierce the hearts of the king’s enemies.
6 Your reign, God, will continue forever.
Your kingdom is renowned for its true justice.
7 You have loved righteousness and hated wickedness,
therefore God, your God, has anointed you with the oil of gladness more than your companions.
8 All your clothes smell of myrrh, aloes, and cassia.
Stringed instruments playing from of ivory palaces have made you glad.
9 Kings’ daughters are among your honourable women.
≈The queen stands on your right, clothed in gold from Ofir.
10 Listen, daughter, turn this way and take notice.
≈Forget your own people and your father’s house.
11 Just like that, the king will desire your beauty.
→He’s your master—submit to him.
12 The princess from Tsor (Tyre) will be there with a gift.
≈The rich people will beg for your favour.
13 The princess in the palace is just splendid—
≈her clothing is embroidered with gold thread.
14 She will be led to the king in an embroidered dress.
≈The virgins, her companions who’ll follow her, will be brought to him.
15 They’ll be led by gladness and celebration.
≈They’ll enter the king’s palace.
16 Your children will be in the positions that your ancestors used to hold—
≈you’ll make them princes across the whole country.
17 I’ll ensure that your name will be remembered by all generations,
45:0 In Hebrew, ‘maskil’ is perhaps the name of this class of song.
