The Book of Psalms
Psalm 45
[To the Chief Musician, Concerning the Lilies. For the sons of Korah. A Poem; a Song of the Beloved.] My heart is overflowing [with] a good matter. I am speaking of my works to the King; my tongue [is] the pen of a rapid writer.
You are the fairest of the sons of man; grace has poured into Your lips; on this account God has blessed You forever.
Gird Your sword on [Your] thigh, Mighty One; [with] Your glory and Your majesty.
And ride prosperously [in] Your majesty, on the matter of truth and meekness [and] right, and Your right hand shall teach You fearful things.
Your arrows [are] sharp in the heart of the King's enemies; peoples fall under You.
Your throne, O God, [is] forever and ever; the scepter of Your kingdom [is] a scepter of uprightness.
You love righteousness and hate wickedness; on account of this God, Your God, has anointed You with the oil of gladness more than Your fellows.
All Your garments [smell] of myrrh and aloes [and] cassia out of ivory palaces, by which they make You glad.
King's daughters [are] among Your precious ones; the queen stands at Your right hand in gold of Ophir.
Listen, O daughter, and look, and incline your ear, and forget your people and your father's house.
And the King will desire your beauty, for He [is] your Lord, and you shall worship Him.
And the daughter of Tyre will stroke Your face with a gift, the rich among the peoples.
The king's daughter [is] all glorious within, her clothing braided gold.
She shall be led to the King in embroidered work; her companions, the virgins, shall be brought to You after her.
They shall be led with gladness and rejoicing; they shall go in to the King's palace.
Your sons shall be in the place of your fathers; You will make them for rulers in all the earth.
I will make remembered Your name in every generation and generation; on this account people shall thank You forever and ever.
