Psalms 45:3
chevron_left
chevron_right
1
My heart is
inditing a good matter: I speak of the things which I have made touching the king: my tongue
is
the pen of a ready writer.
2
Thou art fairer than the children of men: grace is poured into thy lips: therefore God hath blessed thee for ever.
Gird thy sword upon
thy
thigh, O
most
mighty, with thy glory and thy majesty.
4
And in thy majesty ride prosperously because of truth and meekness
and
righteousness; and thy right hand shall teach thee terrible things.
5
Thine arrows
are
sharp in the heart of the king’s enemies;
whereby
the people fall under thee.
6
Thy throne, O God,
is
for ever and ever: the sceptre of thy kingdom
is
a right sceptre.
7
Thou lovest righteousness, and hatest wickedness: therefore God, thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.
8
All thy garments
smell
of myrrh, and aloes,
and
cassia, out of the ivory palaces, whereby they have made thee glad.
9
Kings’ daughters
were
among thy honourable women: upon thy right hand did stand the queen in gold of Ophir.
10
Hearken, O daughter, and consider, and incline thine ear; forget also thine own people, and thy father’s house;
11
So shall the king greatly desire thy beauty: for he
is
thy Lord; and worship thou him.
12
And the daughter of Tyre
shall be there
with a gift;
even
the rich among the people shall intreat thy favour.
13
The king’s daughter
is
all glorious within: her clothing
is
of wrought gold.
14
She shall be brought unto the king in raiment of needlework: the virgins her companions that follow her shall be brought unto thee.
15
With gladness and rejoicing shall they be brought: they shall enter into the king’s palace.
16
Instead of thy fathers shall be thy children, whom thou mayest make princes in all the earth.
17
I will make thy name to be remembered in all generations: therefore shall the people praise thee for ever and ever.
