Psalms 44:9-13 in English

¹³ Thou makest us a reproach to our neighbors, A scoffing and a derision to them that are round about us.

⁹ Myrrh, and stacte, and cassia are exhaled from thy garments, and out of the ivory palaces,

¹⁰ with which kings' daughters have gladdened thee for thine honour: the queen stood by on thy right hand, clothed in vesture wrought with gold, and arrayed in divers colours.

¹¹ Hear, O daughter, and see, and incline thine ear; forget also thy people, and thy father's house.

¹² Because the king has desired thy beauty; for he is thy Lord.

¹³ And the daughter of Tyre shall adore him with gifts; the rich of the people of the land shall supplicate thy favour.

⁹ But thou hast cast off, and put us to shame; and goest not forth with our armies.
