LITV - Psalms - 45

45:1  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.

45:2  You are the fairest of the sons of man; grace has poured into Your lips; on this account God has blessed You forever.

45:3  Gird Your sword on Your thigh, Mighty One; with Your glory and Your majesty.

45:4  And ride prosperously in Your majesty, on the matter of truth and meekness and right, and Your right hand shall teach You fearful things.

45:5  Your arrows are sharp in the heart of the King's enemies; peoples fall under You.

45:6  Your throne, O God, is forever and ever; the scepter of Your kingdom is a scepter of uprightness.

45:7  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.

45:8  All Your garments smell of myrrh and aloes and cassia out of ivory palaces, by which they make You glad.

45:9  King's daughters are among Your precious ones; the queen stands at Your right hand in gold of Ophir.

45:10  Listen, O daughter, and look, and incline your ear, and forget your people and your father's house.

45:11  And the King will desire your beauty, for He is your Lord, and you shall worship Him.

45:12  And the daughter of Tyre will stroke Your face with a gift, the rich among the peoples.

45:13  The king's daughter is all glorious within, her clothing braided gold.

45:14  She shall be led to the King in embroidered work; her companions, the virgins, shall be brought to You after her.

45:15  They shall be led with gladness and rejoicing; they shall go in to the King's palace.

45:16  Your sons shall be in the place of your fathers; You will make them for rulers in all the earth.

45:17  I will make remembered Your name in every generation and generation; on this account people shall thank You forever and ever.
