Psalm 45:7-15
New International Version
7 You love righteousness(A) and hate wickedness;(B)
therefore God, your God, has set you above your companions
by anointing(C) you with the oil of joy.(D)
8 All your robes are fragrant(E) with myrrh(F) and aloes(G) and cassia;(H)
from palaces adorned with ivory(I)
the music of the strings(J) makes you glad.
9 Daughters of kings(K) are among your honored women;
at your right hand(L) is the royal bride(M) in gold of Ophir.(N)
10 Listen, daughter,(O) and pay careful attention:(P)
Forget your people(Q) and your father’s house.
11 Let the king be enthralled by your beauty;(R)
honor(S) him, for he is your lord.(T)
12 The city of Tyre(U) will come with a gift,[a](V)
people of wealth will seek your favor.
13 All glorious(W) is the princess within her chamber;
her gown is interwoven with gold.(X)
14 In embroidered garments(Y) she is led to the king;(Z)
her virgin companions(AA) follow her—
those brought to be with her.
15 Led in with joy and gladness,(AB)
they enter the palace of the king.
