Psalm 45
World English Bible
For the Chief Musician. Set to “The Lilies.” A contemplation by the sons of Korah. A wedding song.
45 My heart overflows with a noble theme.
I recite my verses for the king.
My tongue is like the pen of a skillful writer.
2 You are the most excellent of the sons of men.
Grace has anointed your lips,
therefore God has blessed you forever.
3 Strap your sword on your thigh, O mighty one,
in your splendor and your majesty.
4 In your majesty ride on victoriously on behalf of truth, humility, and righteousness.
Let your right hand display awesome deeds.
5 Your arrows are sharp.
The nations fall under you, with arrows in the heart of the king’s enemies.
6 Your throne, God, is forever and ever.
A scepter of equity is the scepter of your kingdom.
7 You have loved righteousness, and hated wickedness.
Therefore God, your God, has anointed you with the oil of gladness above your fellows.
8 All your garments smell like myrrh, aloes, and cassia.
Out of ivory palaces stringed instruments have made you glad.
9 Kings’ daughters are among your honorable women.
At your right hand the queen stands in gold of Ophir.
10 Listen, daughter, consider, and turn your ear.
Forget your own people, and also your father’s house.
11 So the king will desire your beauty,
honor him, for he is your lord.
12 The daughter of Tyre comes with a gift.
The rich among the people entreat your favor.
13 The princess inside is all glorious.
Her clothing is interwoven with gold.
14 She shall be led to the king in embroidered work.
The virgins, her companions who follow her, shall be brought to you.
15 With gladness and rejoicing they shall be led.
They shall enter into the king’s palace.
16 Your sons will take the place of your fathers.
You shall make them princes in all the earth.
17 I will make your name to be remembered in all generations.
Therefore the peoples shall give you thanks forever and ever.
Psalm 45

Your Throne, O God, Is Forever
To the choirmaster: according to Lilies. A Maskil[a] of (A)the Sons of Korah; a love song.
45 My heart overflows with a pleasing theme;
I address my verses to the king;
my tongue is like the pen of (B)a ready scribe.
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,
11 and the king will desire your beauty.
Since he is your (V)lord, (W)bow to him.
12 The people[b] of Tyre will (X)seek your favor with (Y)gifts,
(Z)the richest of the people.[c]
13 All glorious is (AA)the princess in her chamber, with robes interwoven with gold.
14 (AB)In many-colored robes (AC)she is led to the king,
with her virgin companions following behind her.
15 With joy and gladness they are led along
as they enter the palace of the king.
16 In place of your fathers shall be your sons;
you will make them (AD)princes in all the earth.
17 (AE)I will cause your name to be remembered in all generations;

O Livro
Cântico didático dos descendentes de Coré. Segundo a melodia “Os lírios”. Cântico de amor. Para o diretor do coro.
45 O meu coração transborda de boas intenções.
Escrevi um belo poema para o rei;
vou expressar-me como faria o mais hábil escritor.
2 Tu és o mais belo de todos!
As tuas palavras estão cheias de beleza;
Deus te abençoa para sempre.
3 Arma-te, ó valente,
com as armas da tua glória e da tua majestade!
4 E nesse esplendor avança para a vitória,
defendendo a verdade, a paz e a justiça.
A tua capacidade te levará a realizações assombrosas.
5 Ferirás certeiramente o coração dos teus inimigos
e assim subjugarás povos inteiros.
6 O teu trono, ó Deus, dura para sempre;
a justiça é aquilo que faz a força do teu reino.
7 Tu amas a justiça e aborreces o mal.
Por isso Deus, o teu Deus, derramou sobre ti
mais óleo de alegria do que sobre os teus companheiros.
8 As tuas vestes são perfumadas com mirra, aloés e cássia;
nos teus palácios, belamente decorados de marfim,
toca-se música para teu prazer.
9 Entre as mulheres ilustres da tua corte estão filhas de reis;
ao teu lado está a rainha,
com as suas joias do mais puro ouro de Ofir.
10 Ouve, minha filha, com atenção,
não lamentes a família e a pátria distante que deixaste.
11 O rei ficará preso à tua formosura;
reverencia-o, pois é o teu senhor.
12 O povo de Tiro virá oferecer-te abundantes presentes;
os seus nobres mais ricos suplicarão favores da tua parte.
13 A noiva é uma princesa que espera nos seus aposentos,
vestida de roupas tecidas com ouro.
14 Será depois conduzida até ao rei,
encantadora nos seus vestidos de ricos bordados,
acompanhada das donzelas em cortejo de honra.
15 No meio de alegria e prazer,
assim entrarão no palácio do rei.
16 No lugar dos teus pais
estarão os teus filhos, que tu designarás
como chefes de todo o país.
17 Eu farei com que o teu nome seja comemorado,
por todas as gerações,
e as nações da Terra te louvarão para sempre.
