Psalm 45 – A Song of Worship and Reflection

Psalm 45

45:1 My heart is inditing a good matter: I speak of the things which I

have made touching the king: my tongue is the pen of a ready writer.

45:2 Thou art fairer than the children of men: grace is poured into

thy lips: therefore God hath blessed thee for ever.

45:3 Gird thy sword upon thy thigh, O most mighty, with thy glory and

thy majesty.

45:4 And in thy majesty ride prosperously because of truth and

meekness and righteousness; and thy right hand shall teach thee

terrible things.

45:5 Thine arrows are sharp in the heart of the king’s enemies;

whereby the people fall under thee.

45:6 Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: the sceptre of thy

kingdom is a right sceptre.

45:7 Thou lovest righteousness, and hatest wickedness: therefore God,

thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy

fellows.

45:8 All thy garments smell of myrrh, and aloes, and cassia, out of

the ivory palaces, whereby they have made thee glad.

45:9 Kings’ daughters were among thy honourable women: upon thy right

hand did stand the queen in gold of Ophir.

45:10 Hearken, O daughter, and consider, and incline thine ear; forget

also thine own people, and thy father’s house;

45:11 So shall the king greatly desire thy beauty: for he is thy Lord;

and worship thou him.

45:12 And the daughter of Tyre shall be there with a gift; even the

rich among the people shall intreat thy favour.

45:13 The king’s daughter is all glorious within: her clothing is of

wrought gold.

45:14 She shall be brought unto the king in raiment of needlework: the

virgins her companions that follow her shall be brought unto thee.

45:15 With gladness and rejoicing shall they be brought: they shall

enter into the king’s palace.

45:16 Instead of thy fathers shall be thy children, whom thou mayest

make princes in all the earth.

45:17 I will make thy name to be remembered in all generations:

therefore shall the people praise thee for ever and ever.
