Psalms 45:3

3 Gird 1Your sword on Your thigh, O 2Mighty One, In Your splendor and Your majesty!

Psalms 45:3 In-Context

1 My heart overflows with a good theme; I address my verses to the King; My tongue is the pen of a ready writer.
2 You are fairer than the sons of men; Grace is poured upon Your lips; Therefore God has blessed You forever.
3 Gird Your sword on Your thigh, O Mighty One, In Your splendor and Your majesty!
4 And in Your majesty ride on victoriously, For the cause of truth and meekness and righteousness; Let Your right hand teach You awesome things.
5 Your arrows are sharp; The peoples fall under You; Your arrows are in the heart of the King's enemies.
