Psalms 45
1 To the Chief Musician. On Shoshannim. For the Sons of Korah. A Psalm of Instruction. A Song of Love. Overflowed hath my heart, with an excellent theme, I will recite my poem concerning the king, Be, my tongue, [like] the pen of a scribe who is skilled.
百合花のしらべにあはせて伶長にうたはしめたるコラの子のをしへのうた 愛のうた わが心はうるはしき事にてあふる われは王のために詠たるものをいひいでん わが舌はすみやけく寫字人の筆なり
2 Most beautiful thou art, beyond the sons of men, Graciousness hath been poured forth by thy lips, For this cause, hath God blessed thee, to times age-abiding.
なんぢは人の子輩にまさりて美しく文雅そのくちびるにそそがる このゆゑに神はとこしへに汝をさいはひしたまへり
3 Gird thy sword upon thy thigh, O mighty one, [’Tis] thine honour and thy majesty;
英雄よなんぢその劍その榮その威をこしに佩べし
4 And, [in] thy majesty, be successful! ride forth! on behalf of faithfulness, and humility—righteousness, And let thine own right hand show thee wonderful things.
なんぢ眞理と柔和とただしきとのために威をたくましくし勝をえて乗すすめ なんぢの右手なんぢに畏るべきことををしへん
5 Thine arrows, are sharp—Peoples, under thee, fall! In the heart of the foes of the king.
なんぢの矢は鋭して王のあたの胸をつらぬき もろもろの民はなんぢの下にたふる
6 Thy throne, O God, is to times age-abiding and beyond, A sceptre of equity, is the sceptre of thy kingdom.
神よなんぢの寳座はいやとほ永くなんぢの國のつゑは公平のつゑなり
7 Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated lawlessness, —For this cause, hath God, thine own God, anointed thee, With the oil of gladness, beyond thy partners.
なんぢは義をいつくしみ惡をにくむ このゆゑに神なんぢの神はよろこびの膏をなんぢの侶よりまさりて汝にそそぎたまへり
8 Myrrh and aloes, cassias, all thy garments, —Out of the palaces of ivory, the tones of strings, have rejoiced thee.
なんぢの衣はみな没薬蘆薈肉桂のかをりあり 琴瑟の昔ざうげの諸殿よりいでて汝をよろこぱしめたり
9 Daughters of kings, are among thine honourable women, Stationed is the bride at thy right hand, in gold of Ophir.
なんぢがたふとき婦のなかにはもろもろの王のむすめあり 皇后はオフルの金をかざりてなんぢの右にたつ
10 Hearken, O daughter, and observe, Incline also thine ear, Forget, then, thine own people, And the house of thy father;
女よきけ目をそそげ なんぢの耳をかたぶけよ なんぢの民となんぢが父の家とをわすれよ
11 When the king shall desire thy beauty, Surely, he, is thy lord, then bow down to him.
さらば王はなんぢの美麗をしたはん 王はなんぢの主なりこれを伏拝め
12 Also, the daughter of Tyre, [cometh in] with a present! Thy face, shall the rich of the people appease.
ツロの女は贈物をもてきたり民間のとめるものも亦なんぢの恵をこひもとめん
13 All glorious—the daughter of a king [sitteth] within, Brocades, wrought with gold, [are] her clothing!
王のむすめは殿のうちにていとど榮えかがやき そのころもは金をもて織なせり
14 In embroidered raiment, shall she be brought unto the king—The virgins that follow her, her companions, are to be conducted unto thee:
かれは鍼繍せる衣をきて王のもとにいざなはる 之にともなへる處女もそのあとにしたがひて汝のもとにみちびかれゆかん
15 They shall be brought, with rejoicings and exultation, —They shall enter into the palace of the king!
かれらは歓喜と快樂とをもていざなはれ斯して王の殿にいらん
16 Instead of thy fathers, be thy sons, Thou shalt make them rulers in all the earth.
なんぢの子らは列組にかはりてたち なんぢはこれを全地に君となさん
17 I will keep in remembrance thy Name, through each succeeding generation, For this cause, peoples, shall praise thee, to times age-abiding and beyond.
我なんぢの名をよろづ代にしらしめん この故にもろもろの民はいやとほ永くなんぢに感謝すべし
