Psalms 45

1 The majesty and grace of Christ's Kingdom. 10 The duty of the Church, and the benefits thereof.

 45:1 ¶ [[To the Chief Musician. On Shoshannim. For the Sons of Korah. A Psalm of Instruction. A Song of Love.]] Overflowed hath my heart, with an excellent theme, I will recite my poem concerning the king, Be, my tongue, [like] the pen of a scribe who is skilled.

 45:2 Most beautiful thou art, beyond the sons of men, Graciousness hath been poured forth by thy lips, For this cause, hath God blessed thee, to times age-abiding.

 45:3 Gird thy sword upon thy thigh, O mighty one, ['Tis] thine honour and thy majesty;

 45:4 And, [in] thy majesty, be successful! ride forth! on behalf of faithfulness, and humility—righteousness, And let thine own right hand show thee wonderful things.

 45:5 Thine arrows, are sharp—Peoples, under thee, fall! In the heart of the foes of the king.

 45:6 ¶ Thy throne, O God, is to times age-abiding and beyond, A sceptre of equity, is the sceptre of thy kingdom.

 45:7 Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated lawlessness,—For this cause, hath God, thine own God, anointed thee, With the oil of gladness, beyond thy partners.

 45:8 Myrrh and aloes, cassias, all thy garments,—Out of the palaces of ivory, the tones of strings, have rejoiced thee.

 45:9 Daughters of kings, are among thine honourable women, Stationed is the bride at thy right hand, in gold of Ophir.

 45:10 ¶ Hearken, O daughter, and observe, Incline also thine ear, Forget, then, thine own people, And the house of thy father;

 45:11 When the king shall desire thy beauty, Surely, he, is thy lord, then bow down to him.

 45:12 Also, the daughter of Tyre, [cometh in] with a present! Thy face, shall the rich of the people appease.

 45:13 All glorious—the daughter of a king [sitteth] within, Brocades, wrought with gold, [are] her clothing!

 45:14 In embroidered raiment, shall she be brought unto the king—The virgins that follow her, her companions, are to be conducted unto thee:

 45:15 They shall be brought, with rejoicings and exultation,—They shall enter into the palace of the king!

 45:16 Instead of thy fathers, be thy sons, Thou shalt make them rulers in all the earth.

 45:17 I will keep in remembrance thy Name, through each succeeding generation, For this cause, peoples, shall praise thee, to times age-abiding and beyond.
