Psalm 45:1-10

English Standard Version

² You are ^(C)the most handsome of the sons of men;
    ^(D)grace is poured upon your lips;
    therefore God has blessed you forever.
^3 (E)Gird your ^(F)sword on your thigh, O ^(G)mighty one,
    in ^(H)your splendor and majesty!

⁴ In your majesty ^(I)ride out victoriously
    for the cause of truth and meekness and righteousness;
    let your right hand teach you ^(J)awesome deeds!
⁵ Your arrows are sharp
    in the heart of the king's enemies;
    the peoples fall under you.

^6 (K)Your throne, O God, is forever and ever.
    The ^(L)scepter of your kingdom is a scepter of uprightness;
^{7     (M)}you have loved righteousness and hated wickedness.
Therefore ^(N)God, your God, has ^(O)anointed you
    with the oil of ^(P)gladness ^(Q)beyond your companions;
⁸     your robes are all fragrant with ^(R)myrrh and aloes and cassia.
From ivory palaces ^(S)stringed instruments make you glad;
⁹     daughters of kings are among your ladies of honor;
    ^(T)at your right hand stands the queen in ^(U)gold of Ophir.

¹⁰ Hear, O daughter, and consider, and incline your ear:
    forget your people and your father's house,
