תהילים 45

1 לַמְנַצֵּחַ עַל־שֹׁשַׁנִּים לִבְנֵי־קֹרַח מַשְׂכִּיל שִׁיר יְדִידֹֽת׃ רָחַשׁ לִבִּי ׀ דָּבָר טוֹב אֹמֵר אָנִי מַעֲשַׂי לְמֶלֶךְ לְשׁוֹנִי עֵט ׀ סוֹפֵר מָהִֽיר׃

[For the Chief Musician. Set to "The Lilies." A contemplation by the sons of Korah. A wedding song.] My heart overflows with a noble theme. I recite my verses for the king. My tongue is like the pen of a skillful writer.

2 יׇפְיָפִיתָ מִבְּנֵי אָדָם הוּצַק חֵן בְּשִׂפְתוֹתֶיךָ עַל־כֵּן בֵּֽרַכְךָ אֱלֹהִים לְעוֹלָֽם׃

You are the most handsome of the sons of men. Grace has anointed your lips, therefore God has blessed you forever.

3 חֲגֽוֹר־חַרְבְּךָ עַל־יָרֵךְ גִּבּוֹר הוֹדְךָ וַהֲדָרֶֽךָ׃

Gird your sword on your thigh, mighty one: your splendor and your majesty.

4 וַהֲדָרְךָ ׀ צְלַח רְכַב עַֽל־דְּבַר־אֱמֶת וְעַנְוָה־צֶדֶק וְתוֹרְךָ נוֹרָאוֹת יְמִינֶֽךָ׃

In your majesty ride on victoriously on behalf of truth, humility, and righteousness. Let your right hand display awesome deeds.

5 חִצֶּיךָ שְׁנוּנִים עַמִּים תַּחְתֶּיךָ יִפְּלוּ בְּלֵב אוֹיְבֵי הַמֶּֽלֶךְ׃

Your arrows are sharp. The nations fall under you, with arrows in the heart of the king's enemies.

6 כִּסְאֲךָ אֱלֹהִים עוֹלָם וָעֶד שֵׁבֶט מִישֹׁר שֵׁבֶט מַלְכוּתֶֽךָ׃

Your throne, God, is forever and ever. A scepter of equity is the scepter of your kingdom.

7 אָהַבְתָּ צֶּדֶק וַתִּשְׂנָא ־ רֶשַׁע עַל־כֵּן ׀ מְשָׁחֲךָ אֱלֹהִים אֱלֹהֶיךָ שֶׁמֶן שָׂשׂוֹן מֵחֲבֵרֶֽךָ׃

You have loved righteousness, and hated wickedness. Therefore God, your God, has anointed you with the oil of gladness above your companions.

8 מֹר־וַאֲהָלוֹת קְצִיעוֹת כׇּל־בִּגְדֹתֶיךָ מִֽן־הֵיכְלֵי שֵׁן מִנִּי שִׂמְּחֽוּךָ׃

All your garments smell like myrrh and aloes and cassia. Out of ivory palaces stringed instruments have made you glad.

9 בְּנוֹת מְלָכִים בְּיִקְּרוֹתֶיךָ נִצְּבָה שֵׁגַל לִימִינְךָ בְּכֶתֶם אוֹפִֽיר׃

Kings' daughters are among your honorable women. At your right hand the queen stands in gold of Ophir.

10 שִׁמְעִי־בַת וּרְאִי וְהַטִּי אׇזְנֵךְ וְשִׁכְחִי עַמֵּךְ וּבֵית אָבִֽיךְ׃

Listen, daughter, consider, and turn your ear. Forget your own people, and also your father's house.

11 וְיִתְאָו הַמֶּלֶךְ יׇפְיֵךְ כִּי־הוּא אֲדֹנַיִךְ וְהִשְׁתַּֽחֲוִי־לֽוֹ׃

So the king will desire your beauty, honor him, for he is your lord.

12 וּבַֽת־צֹר ׀ בְּמִנְחָה פָּנַיִךְ יְחַלּוּ עֲשִׁירֵי עָֽם׃

The daughter of Tyre comes with a gift. The rich among the people will seek your favor.

13 כׇּל־כְּבוּדָּה בַת־מֶלֶךְ פְּנִימָה מִֽמִּשְׁבְּצוֹת זָהָב לְבוּשָֽׁהּ׃

The princess inside is all glorious. Her clothing is interwoven with gold.

14 לִרְקָמוֹת תּוּבַל לַמֶּלֶךְ בְּתוּלוֹת אַחֲרֶיהָ רֵעוֹתֶיהָ מוּבָאוֹת לָֽךְ׃

She shall be led to the king in embroidered work. The virgins, her companions who follow her, shall be brought to you.

15 תּוּבַלְנָה בִּשְׂמָחֹת וָגִיל תְּבֹאֶינָה בְּהֵיכַל מֶֽלֶךְ׃

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

16 תַּחַת אֲבֹתֶיךָ יִהְיוּ בָנֶיךָ תְּשִׁיתֵמוֹ לְשָׂרִים בְּכׇל־הָאָֽרֶץ׃

Your sons will take the place of your fathers. You shall make them princes in all the earth.

17 אַזְכִּירָה שִׁמְךָ בְּכׇל־דֹּר וָדֹר עַל־כֵּן עַמִּים יְהוֹדוּךָ לְעֹלָם וָעֶֽד׃

I will make your name to be remembered in all generations. Therefore the peoples shall give you thanks forever and ever.
