Psalms 45:1-16

My heart overflows with a good theme; I address my psalm to the King. My tongue is like the pen of a skillful writer. You are fairer than the sons of men; Graciousness is poured upon Your lips; Therefore God has blessed You forever. ¶Strap Your sword on Your thigh, O mighty One, In Your splendor and Your majesty! And in Your majesty ride on triumphantly For the cause of truth and humility and righteousness; Let Your right hand guide You to awesome things. Your arrows are sharp; The peoples (nations) fall under You; Your arrows pierce the hearts of the King’s enemies. ¶Your throne, O God, is forever and ever; The scepter of uprightness is the scepter of Your kingdom. You have loved righteousness (virtue, morality, justice) and hated wickedness; Therefore God, your God, has anointed You Above Your companions with the oil of jubilation. [Heb 1:8, 9] All Your garments are fragrant with myrrh, aloes and cassia; From ivory palaces stringed instruments have made You glad. Kings’ daughters are among Your noble ladies; At Your right hand stands the queen in gold from Ophir. ¶Hear, O daughter, consider and incline your ear [to my instruction]: Forget your people and your father’s house; Then the King will desire your beauty; Because He is your Lord, bow down and honor Him. The daughter of Tyre will come with a gift; The rich among the people will seek your favor. ¶Glorious is the King’s daughter within [the palace]; Her robe is interwoven with gold. [Rev 19:7, 8] She will be brought to the King in embroidered garments; The virgins, her companions who follow her, Will be brought to You. With gladness and rejoicing will they be led; They will enter into the King’s palace. ¶In place of your fathers will be your sons; You shall make princes in all the land.
