Psalms 45:4-17 ▼

4 And in your splendor prosper! Ride forth upon a word of truth and gentleness and justice; and your right hand will teach you fearful things.

5 Your arrows are sharp—the peoples fall under you—in the heart of the enemies of the king.

6 Your throne, O God, is forever and ever; a scepter of uprightness is the scepter of your kingdom.

7 You have loved righteousness and hated wickedness; upon thus, God, your God has anointed you with the oil of joy above your companions.

8 All your garments are with myrrh and aloes and cassia; from the palaces of ivory, the harps have made you glad.

9 Daughters of kings are among your precious ones; the queen stands at your right hand, in gold of Ophir.

10 Hear, O daughter, and see; and incline your ear, and forget your people and the house of your father.

11 For the king himself desires your beauty, because he is your lord—and bow to him—

12 and the daughter of Tyre, with a gift; the rich among the people, will seek your face.

13 All glorious is the daughter of the king inside; her clothing is with weavings of gold.

14 In various colors she is brought to the king; the virgins following her, companions of hers, shall be brought to you.

15 They are brought along with joy and rejoicing; they shall come into the palace of the king.

16 In place of your fathers shall be your sons, whom you shall make to be princes in all the earth.

17 I will cause your name to be remembered through all generations; upon thus the people will praise you forever and ever.
