PsalmsPsalm 45 |
1 To the chief |
2 You are fairer |
3 Gird |
4 And in your majesty |
5 Your arrows |
6 Your throne, |
7 You love |
8 All |
9 Kings' |
10 Listen, |
11 So shall the king |
12 And the daughter |
13 The king's |
14 She shall be brought |
15 With gladness |
16 Instead |
17 I will make your name |
PsalmsPsalm 45 |
1 MY heart bubbles forth good news and I will tell my deeds to the king; my tongue is the pen of a ready writer. |
2 You are fairer than the children of men; grace is poured into your lips; therefore God has blessed you for ever. |
3 Gird your sword upon your thigh, O most mighty, with your glory and your majesty. |
4 Your majesty is triumphant; ride upon the word of truth and meekness and righteousness; your law is upheld by reverence for your right hand. |
5 Your arrows are sharp; let them pierce the heart of the king's enemies, and let the people fall under you. |
6 Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever; the sceptre of thy kingdom is a right sceptre. |
7 You love righteousness and hate wickedness; therefore God, your God, has anointed you with the oil of gladness above your fellows. |
8 All your garments smell of myrrh and aloes and cassia, out of the magnificent temple whereby they have made you glad. |
9 The king's daughter stands in glory, the queen stands at your right hand in gold of Ophir. |
10 Hearken, O my daughter, and consider and incline your ear; forget also your own people and your father's house. |
11 So shall the king greatly desire your beauty; for he is your lord; make obeisance to him. |
12 And the daughter of Tyre shall worship him; even the rich among the people shall seek your presence with gifts. |
13 All the glory of the king's daughter is from within; her clothing is adorned with fine gold. |
14 She shall be brought to the king with gifts; and her virgin companions shall follow in her train. |
15 With gladness and rejoicing shall they be brought; they shall enter into the king's palace. |
16 Instead of your fathers shall be your sons; you shall make them princes in all the earth, |
17 I will make your name to be remembered in all generations; therefore shall the people praise you for ever and ever. |
