For the choirmaster. To the tune of “The Lilies.” A Maskil of the sons of Korah. A love song. My heart is stirred by a noble theme as I recite my verses to the king; my tongue is the pen of a skillful writer.

Your throne, O God, endures forever and ever, and justice is the scepter of Your kingdom.

The daughters of kings are among your honored women; the queen stands at your right hand, adorned with the gold of Ophir.

Listen, O daughter! Consider and incline your ear: Forget your people and your father’s house,

In colorful garments she is led to the king; her virgin companions are brought before you.
15 Vanoperekedzwa vachapinda nomufaro nokufarisisa; vanopinda mumuzinda wamambo.
They are led in with joy and gladness; they enter the palace of the king.
