YLT Psalms 45 Chapter
45:1
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.
45:2
Thou hast been beautified above the sons of men, Grace hath been poured into thy lips, Therefore hath God blessed thee to the age.
45:3
Gird Thy sword upon the thigh, O mighty, Thy glory and Thy majesty!
45:4
As to Thy majesty -- prosper! -- ride! Because of truth, and meekness -- righteousness, And Thy right hand showeth Thee fearful things.
45:5
Thine arrows [are] sharp, -- Peoples fall under Thee -- In the heart of the enemies of the king.
45:6
Thy throne, O God, [is] age-during, and for ever, A sceptre of uprightness [Is] the sceptre of Thy kingdom.
45:7
Thou hast loved righteousness and hatest wickedness, Therefore God, thy God, hath anointed thee, Oil of joy above thy companions.
45:8
Myrrh and aloes, cassia! all thy garments, Out of palaces of ivory Stringed instruments have made thee glad.
45:9
Daughters of kings [are] among thy precious ones, A queen hath stood at thy right hand, In pure gold of Ophir.
45:10
Hearken, O daughter, and see, incline thine ear, And forget thy people, and thy father's house,
45:11
And the king doth desire thy beauty, Because he [is] thy lord -- bow thyself to him,
45:12
And the daughter of Tyre with a present, The rich of the people do appease thy face.
45:13
All glory [is] the daughter of the king within, Of gold-embroidered work [is] her clothing.
45:14
In divers colours she is brought to the king, Virgins -- after her -- her companions, Are brought to thee.
45:15
They are brought with joy and gladness, They come into the palace of the king.
45:16
Instead of thy fathers are thy sons, Thou dost appoint them for princes in all the earth.
45:17
I make mention of Thy name in all generations, Therefore do peoples praise Thee, To the age, and for ever!
