Psalms 45:7-9
Psalms 45:6-9 The Message (MSG)
“Your throne is God’s throne, ever and always; The scepter of your royal rule measures right living. You love the right and hate the wrong. And that is why God, your very own God, poured fragrant oil on your head, Marking you out as king from among your dear companions. “Your forest-drenched garments are fragrant with mountain breeze. Chamber music—from the throne room— makes you want to dance. Kings’ daughters are maids in your court, the Bride glittering with golden jewelry. * * *

Kings' daughters were among thy honourable women: Upon thy right hand did stand the queen in gold of Ophir.
