NASB Bible

Psalms 45

For the choir director; according to the  aShoshannim. A  bMaskil of the sons of Korah. A Song of Love.

1

My heart  1overflows with a good theme; I  2address my  3verses to the  4King; My tongue is the pen of  aa ready writer.

2

You are fairer than the sons of men;  aGrace is poured  1upon Your lips; Therefore God has  bblessed You forever.

3

Gird  aYour sword on Your thigh, O  1 bMighty One, In Your splendor and Your majesty!

4

And in Your majesty ride on victoriously, For the cause of truth and  ameekness and righteousness; Let Your  bright hand teach You  1awesome things.

5

Your  aarrows are sharp; The  bpeoples fall under You; Your arrows are  cin the heart of the King's enemies.

6

 aYour throne, O God, is forever and ever; A scepter of  buprightness is the scepter of Your kingdom.

7

You have  aloved righteousness and hated wickedness; Therefore God, Your God, has  banointed You With the oil of joy above Your fellows.

8

All Your garments are fragrant with  amyrrh and aloes and cassia; Out of ivory palaces  bstringed instruments have made You glad.

9

Kings' daughters are among  aYour noble ladies; At Your  bright hand stands the queen in  cgold from Ophir.

10

Listen, O daughter, give attention and incline your ear:  aForget your people and your father's house;

11

Then the King will desire your beauty. Because He is your  aLord,  bbow down to Him.

12

The daughter of  aTyre will come with a gift; The  brich among the people will seek your favor.

13

The King's daughter is all glorious within; Her clothing is  ainterwoven with gold.

14

She will be  aled to the King  bin embroidered work; The  cvirgins, her companions who follow her, Will be brought to You.

15

They will be led forth with gladness and rejoicing; They will enter into the King's palace.

16

In place of your fathers will be your sons; You shall make them princes in all the earth.

17

I will cause  aYour name to be remembered in all generations; Therefore the peoples  bwill give You thanks forever and ever.
