My heart is moved by a noble theme
as I recite my verses to the king;
my tongue is the pen of a skillful writer.
in your splendor ride triumphantly
in the cause of truth, humility, and justice.
May your right hand show your awe-inspiring acts.
You love righteousness and hate wickedness;
therefore God, your God, has anointed you with the oil of joy
more than your companions.
Kings’ daughters are among your honored women;
the queen, adorned with gold from Ophir,
stands at your right hand.
In colorful garments she is led to the king;
after her, the virgins, her companions, are brought to you.
