Psalms Chapter 45

Young's Literal Translation

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