To the chief Musician upon Shoshannim, for the sons of Korah, Maschil, A Song of loves. My heart is inditing a good matter: I speak of the things which I have made touching the king: my tongue [is] the pen of a ready writer.
2 I bụ onye kachasị mma nʼetiti ụmụ mmadụ, e ji amara tee egbugbere ọnụ gị mmanụ, ebe ọ bụ na Chineke agọziela gị ruo mgbe ebighị ebi.
Thou art fairer than the children of men: grace is poured into thy lips: therefore God hath blessed thee for ever.
3 Kenye mma agha gị nʼukwu gị, gị onye dị ike; yikwasị onwe gị ebube na ịma mma dịka uwe.
Gird thy sword upon [thy] thigh, O [most] mighty, with thy glory and thy majesty.
4 Nʼebube gị, gaa nʼihu nʼime mmeri, nʼihi eziokwu, na ịdị obi umeala, na ezi omume; ka aka nri gị gosipụta ọrụ gị niile nke na-eju anya.
And in thy majesty ride prosperously because of truth and meekness [and] righteousness; and thy right hand shall teach thee terrible things.
5 Ka àkụ gị niile dị nkọ mapuo mkpụrụobi ndị iro niile nke eze; ka mba niile na-adakwa nʼokpuru ụkwụ gị.
Thine arrows [are] sharp in the heart of the king’s enemies; [whereby] the people fall under thee.
6 O Chineke, ocheeze gị ga-adịgide ruo mgbe ebighị ebi, mkpara omume ziri ezi ka mkpara alaeze gị ga-abụ
Thy throne, O God, [is] for ever and ever: the sceptre of thy kingdom [is] a right sceptre.

Thou lovest righteousness, and hatest wickedness: therefore God, thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.
8 Uwe gị niile jupụtara nʼisisi ụtọ nke si na mmanụ máá na aloos na akashia; ha sitere nʼụlọeze niile, e ji ọdụ enyi chọọ mma. Egwu sitere nʼụbọ akwara na-eme ka i nwee obi ụtọ.
All thy garments [smell] of myrrh, and aloes, [and] cassia, out of the ivory palaces, whereby they have made thee glad.

Kings’ daughters [were] among thy honourable women: upon thy right hand did stand the queen in gold of Ophir.
10 Gee ntị, gị nwaagbọghọ, tulee ma nụrụkwa ihe m na-ekwu: “Chefuo ndị gị na ezinaụlọ nna gị.
Hearken, O daughter, and consider, and incline thine ear; forget also thine own people, and thy father’s house;
11 Nʼihi na ịma mma gị ga-eme ka eze chọsie gị ike. Sọpụrụ ya nʼihi na ọ bụ onyenwe gị.”
So shall the king greatly desire thy beauty: for he [is] thy Lord; and worship thou him.
12 Ada Taịa ga-eji onyinye bịa; ndị ọgaranya ga-achọkwa ka i gosi ha ihuọma.
And the daughter of Tyre [shall be there] with a gift; [even] the rich among the people shall intreat thy favour.
13 Adaeze, lee ka o si maa mma dị ukwuu nʼime ụlọ ya; ọ bụ akwa a kpanyere ọlaedo ka e ji dụọ uwe mwụda ya.
The king’s daughter [is] all glorious within: her clothing [is] of wrought gold.

She shall be brought unto the king in raiment of needlework: the virgins her companions that follow her shall be brought unto thee.
15 E ji ọṅụ na obi ụtọ dubata ha; ha bara nʼime ụlọeze.
With gladness and rejoicing shall they be brought: they shall enter into the king’s palace.

Instead of thy fathers shall be thy children, whom thou mayest make princes in all the earth.

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