Psalms 45

Third Millennium Bible TMB

1 <<To the chief musician: Upon Shoshannim. For the sons of Korah. Maschil, a song of loves.>> My heart is composing a goodly matter; I speak of the verses which I have made concerning the King; my tongue is the pen of a ready writer.

2 Thou art fairer than the children of men; grace is poured into Thy lips; therefore God hath blessed Thee for ever.

3 Gird Thy sword upon Thy thigh, O most Mighty, with Thy glory and Thy majesty.

4 And in Thy majesty ride prosperously because of truth and meekness and righteousness; and Thy right hand shall teach Thee fearsome things.

5 Thine arrows are sharp in the heart of the King's enemies, whereby the people fall under Thee.

6 Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever; the scepter of Thy Kingdom is a righteous scepter.

7 Thou lovest righteousness and hatest wickedness; therefore God, Thy God, hath anointed Thee with the oil of gladness above Thy fellows.

8 All Thy garments smell of myrrh and aloes and cassia, out of the ivory palaces whereby they have made Thee glad.

9 Kings' daughters were among Thy honorable women; at Thy right hand stood the queen in gold of Ophir.

10 Hearken, O daughter, and consider and incline thine ear; forget also thine own people and thy father's house.

11 So shall the King greatly desire thy beauty, for He is thy Lord; worship thou Him.

12 And the daughter of Tyre shall be there with a gift; even the rich among the people shall entreat thy favor.

13 The King's daughter is all glorious within; her clothing is of wrought gold.

14 She shall be brought unto the King in raiment of needlework; the virgins, her companions that follow her, shall be brought unto Thee.

15 With gladness and rejoicing shall they be brought; they shall enter into the King's palace.

16 Instead of Thy fathers shall be Thy children, whom Thou mayest make princes in all the earth.

17 I will make Thy name to be remembered in all generations; therefore shall the people praise Thee for ever and ever.

GOD'S WORD Translation GW

1 My heart is overflowing with good news. I will direct my song to the king. My tongue is a pen for a skillful writer.

2 You are the most handsome of Adam's descendants. Grace is poured on your lips. That is why God has blessed you forever.

3 O warrior, strap your sword to your side with your splendor and majesty.

4 Ride on victoriously in your majesty for the cause of truth, humility, and righteousness. Let your right hand teach you awe-inspiring things.

5 Your arrows are sharp in the heart of the king's enemies. Nations fall beneath you.

6 Your throne, O God, is forever and ever. The scepter in your kingdom is a scepter for justice.

7 You have loved what is right and hated what is wrong. That is why God, your God, has anointed you, rather than your companions, with the oil of joy.

8 All your robes are [fragrant] with myrrh, aloes, and cassia. From ivory palaces the music of stringed instruments delights you.

9 The daughters of kings are among your noble ladies. The queen takes her place at your right hand and wears gold from Ophir.

10 Listen, daughter! Look closely! Turn your ear [toward me]. Forget your people, and forget your father's house.

11 The king longs for your beauty. He is your Lord. Worship him.

12 The people of Tyre, the richest people, want to win your favor with a gift.

13 The daughter of the king is glorious inside [the palace]. Her dress is embroidered with gold.

14 Wearing a colorful gown, she is brought to the king. Her bridesmaids follow her. They will be brought to you.

15 With joy and delight they are brought in. They enter the palace of the king.

16 Your sons will take the place of your father. You will make them princes over the whole earth.

17 I will cause your name to be remembered throughout every generation. That is why the nations will give thanks to you forever and ever.
