chapter_Psalm_45
Psalm 45:1: To the Overseer. &#8212; 'On the Lilies.' &#8212; By sons of Korah. &#8212; An Instruction. &#8212; A song of loves. My heart hath indited a good thing, I am telling my works to a king, My tongue is the pen of a speedy writer. Psalm 45:2: Thou hast been beautified above the sons of men, Grace hath been poured into thy lips, Therefore hath God blessed thee to the age. Psalm 45:3: Gird Thy sword upon the thigh, O mighty, Thy glory and Thy majesty! Psalm 45:4: As to Thy majesty &#8212; prosper! &#8212; ride! Because of truth, and meekness &#8212; righteousness, And Thy right hand showeth Thee fearful things. Psalm 45:5: Thine arrows are sharp, &#8212; Peoples fall under Thee &#8212; In the heart of the enemies of the king. Psalm 45:6: Thy throne, O God, is age-during, and for ever, A sceptre of uprightness Is the sceptre of Thy kingdom. Psalm 45:7: Thou hast loved righteousness and hatest wickedness, Therefore God, thy God, hath anointed thee, Oil of joy above thy companions. Psalm 45:8: Myrrh and aloes, cassia! all thy garments, Out of palaces of ivory Stringed instruments have made thee glad. Psalm 45:9: Daughters of kings are among thy precious ones, A queen hath stood at thy right hand, In pure gold of Ophir. Psalm 45:10: Hearken, O daughter, and see, incline thine ear, And forget thy people, and thy father's house, Psalm 45:11: And the king doth desire thy beauty, Because he is thy lord &#8212; bow thyself to him, Psalm 45:12: And the daughter of Tyre with a present, The rich of the people do appease thy face. Psalm 45:13: All glory is the daughter of the king within, Of gold-embroidered work is her clothing. Psalm 45:14: In divers colours she is brought to the king, Virgins &#8212; after her &#8212; her companions, Are brought to thee. Psalm 45:15: They are brought with joy and gladness, They come into the palace of the king. Psalm 45:16: Instead of thy fathers are thy sons, Thou dost appoint them for princes in all the earth. Psalm 45:17: I make mention of Thy name in all generations, Therefore do peoples praise Thee, To the age, and for ever!
