10 Hear, O daughter, consider and incline your ear;
    forget your people and your father’s house,(A)
11     and the king will desire your beauty.
Since he is your lord, bow to him;(B)
12     Daughter Tyre will seek your favor with gifts,
the richest of the people(C) 13     with all kinds of wealth.

    behind her the virgins, her companions, follow.(E)
15 With joy and gladness they are led along
    as they enter the palace of the king.

16 In the place of ancestors you, O king,[b] shall have sons;
    you will make them princes in all the earth.(F)
17 I will cause your name to be celebrated in all generations;
    therefore the peoples will praise you forever and ever.(G)
