Honor to the King
1   My heart is overflowing with a good matter: I speak   of   the   things   which   I   have   made concerning the king: my tongue is the pen of a ready scribe.
2   You are fairer than the children of men: grace is poured into your lips: therefore God has blessed you forever.
3   Gird your sword upon your thigh, O most mighty, with your glory and your majesty.
4   And in your majesty ride prosperously because     of     truth     and     meekness     and righteousness; and your right hand shall teach you awesome things.
5   Your arrows are sharp in the heart of the king's enemies; by which the people fall under you.
6   Your throne, O God, is forever and ever: the scepter of your kingdom is a righteous scepter.
7   You love righteousness, and hate wickedness:   therefore   God,   your   God,   has anointed you with the oil of gladness above your fellows.
8   All your garments smell of myrrh, and aloes, and cassia, out of the ivory palaces, by which they have made you glad.
9   Kings' daughters were among your honorable women: at your right hand did stand the queen in gold of Ophir.
10   Hearken, O daughter, and consider, and incline your ear; forget also your own people, and your father's house;
11   So  shall  the  king  greatly  desire  your beauty: since he is your Lord, worship him.
12   And the daughter of Tyre shall be there with a gift; even the rich among the people shall entreat your favor.
13   The king's daughter is all glorious within the palace: her clothing is of woven gold.
14   She shall be brought unto the king in robes of needlework: the virgins, her companions that follow her, shall be brought unto you.
15   With gladness and rejoicing shall they be brought: they shall enter into the king's palace.
16   Instead of your fathers shall be your children, whom you may make princes in all the earth.
17   I will make your name to be remembered in all generations: therefore shall the people praise you forever and ever.
