✧1For 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. Copy✧2You are the most handsome of men; grace has anointed your lips, since God has blessed you forever. Copy✧3Strap your sword at your side, O mighty warrior; appear in your majesty and splendor. Copy✧4In your splendor ride forth in victory on behalf of truth and humility and justice; may your right hand show your awesome deeds. Copy✧5Your arrows pierce the hearts of the king’s foes; the nations fall beneath your feet. Copy✧6Your throne, O God, endures forever and ever, and justice is the scepter of Your kingdom. Copy✧7You have loved righteousness and hated wickedness; therefore God, your God, has anointed you above your companions with the oil of joy. Copy
