Psalms 45

¹My heart overfloweth with a goodly matter;

²Thou art fairer than the children of men;

³Gird thy sword upon thy thigh, O mighty one,

⁴And in thy majesty ride on prosperously,

⁵Thine arrows are sharp;

⁶Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever:

⁷Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated wickedness:

⁸All thy garments smell of myrrh, and aloes, and cassia;

⁹Kings’ daughters are among thy honorable women:

¹⁰Hearken, O daughter, and consider, and incline thine ear;

¹¹So will the king desire thy beauty;

¹²And the daughter of Tyre shall be there with a gift;

¹³The king’s daughter within the palace is all glorious:

¹⁴She shall be led unto the king in broidered work:

¹⁵With gladness and rejoicing shall they be led:

¹⁶Instead of thy fathers shall be thy children,

¹⁷I will make thy name to be remembered in all generations:
