Psalm 45:1-2Common English Bible (CEB)Psalm 45For the music leader. According to “The Lilies.” Of the Korahites. A maskil.[a] A love song.
45 A marvelous word has stirred my heart
as I mention my works to the king. My tongue is the pen of a skillful scribe.
2 You are the most handsome of men;
grace has been poured out on your lips. No wonder God has blessed you forever! |
6 Your divine throne is eternal and everlasting.
Your royal scepter is a scepter of justice. 7 You love righteousness and hate wickedness. No wonder God, your God, has anointed you with the oil of joy more than all your companions! 8 All your clothes have the pleasing scent of myrrh, aloes, and cinnamon. The music of stringed instruments coming from ivory palaces entertains you. 9 The royal princess is standing in your precious jewels; [a] the queen stands at your right, dressed in the gold of Ophir.
