5. Your arrows are sharp; peoples fall under you in the midst of the king’s enemies.
6. Your throne, O God, is forever and ever. A scepter of uprightness is the scepter of your kingdom.
7. You love righteousness and hate wickedness. Therefore God, your God, has anointed you from among your companions with festive oil.
8. All your robes are scented with myrrh and aloes and cassia. From palaces of ivory stringed instruments gladden you.

10. Hear, O daughter, and discern and incline your ear, and forget your people and your father’s house.
