Psalms 45

1 For the Leader; upon Shoshannim; a Psalm of the sons of Korah. Maschil. A Song of loves. My heart overfloweth with a goodly matter; I say: 'My work is concerning a king'; my tongue is the pen of a ready writer.

可拉後裔的訓誨詩，又是愛慕歌，交與伶長。調用百合花。 我心裏湧出美辭； 我論到我為王做的事， 我的舌頭是快手筆。

2 Thou art fairer than the children of men; grace is poured upon thy lips; therefore God hath blessed thee for ever.

你比世人更美； 在你嘴裏滿有恩惠； 所以上帝賜福給你，直到永遠。

3 Gird thy sword upon thy thigh, O mighty one, thy glory and thy majesty.

大能者啊，願你腰間佩刀， 大有榮耀和威嚴！

4 And in thy majesty prosper, ride on, in behalf of truth and meekness and righteousness; and let thy right hand teach thee tremendous things.

為真理、謙卑、公義赫然坐車前往，無不得勝； 你的右手必顯明可畏的事。

5 Thine arrows are sharp — the peoples fall under thee — they sink into the heart of the king's enemies.

你的箭鋒快，射中王敵之心； 萬民仆倒在你以下。

6 Thy throne given of God is for ever and ever; a sceptre of equity is the sceptre of thy kingdom.

上帝啊，你的寶座是永永遠遠的； 你的國權是正直的。

7 Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated wickedness; therefore God, thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.

你喜愛公義，恨惡罪惡； 所以上帝－就是你的上帝－用喜樂油膏你， 勝過膏你的同伴。

8 Myrrh, and aloes, and cassia are all thy garments; out of ivory palaces stringed instruments have made thee glad.

你的衣服都有沒藥、沉香、肉桂的香氣； 象牙宮中有絲弦樂器的聲音使你歡喜。

9 Kings' daughters are among thy favourites; at thy right hand doth stand the queen in gold of Ophir.

有君王的女兒在你尊貴婦女之中； 王后佩戴俄斐金飾站在你右邊。

10 'Hearken, O daughter, and consider, and incline thine ear; forget also thine own people, and thy father's house;

女子啊，你要聽，要想，要側耳而聽！ 不要記念你的民和你的父家，

11 So shall the king desire thy beauty; for he is thy lord; and do homage unto him.

王就羨慕你的美貌； 因為他是你的主，你當敬拜他。

12 And, O daughter of Tyre, the richest of the people shall entreat thy favour with a gift.'

泰爾的民必來送禮； 民中的富足人也必向你求恩。

13 All glorious is the king's daughter within the palace; her raiment is of chequer work inwrought with gold.

王女在宮裏極其榮華； 她的衣服是用金線繡的。

14 She shall be led unto the king on richly woven stuff; the virgins her companions in her train being brought unto thee.

她要穿錦繡的衣服，被引到王前； 隨從她的陪伴童女也要被帶到你面前。

15 They shall be led with gladness and rejoicing; they shall enter into the king's palace.

她們要歡喜快樂被引導； 她們要進入王宮。

16 Instead of thy fathers shall be thy sons, whom thou shalt make princes in all the land.

你的子孫要接續你的列祖； 你要立他們在全地作王。

17 I will make thy name to be remembered in all generations; therefore shall the peoples praise thee for ever and ever.

我必叫你的名被萬代記念， 所以萬民要永永遠遠稱謝你。
