Rejoice in the LORD, O righteous ones; it is fitting for the upright to praise Him.

Hallelujah! How good it is to sing praises to our God, how pleasant and lovely to praise Him!

Eloquent words are unfit for a fool; how much worse are lying lips to a ruler!

Luxury is unseemly for a fool—how much worse for a slave to rule over princes!

Like snow in summer and rain at harvest, honor does not befit a fool.

I am dark, yet lovely, O daughters of Jerusalem, like the tents of Kedar, like the curtains of Solomon.

O my dove in the clefts of the rock, in the crevices of the cliff, let me see your face, let me hear your voice; for your voice is sweet, and your countenance is lovely.

Your lips are like a scarlet ribbon, and your mouth is lovely. Your brow behind your veil is like a slice of pomegranate.

You are as beautiful, my darling, as Tirzah, as lovely as Jerusalem, as majestic as troops with banners.

Though she is beautiful and delicate, I will destroy the Daughter of Zion.
